PCB termination system provides easy and flexible power distribution in lighting and control systems

User benefits include the fact that power-line terminations can be taken from any point on the printed-circuit board without the need for tracks to be extended to one specific connection area. As a result, costs are reduced because of the simplified design and savings in real estate. This approach also eliminates the possibility of concentrated “hot spots” and therefore allows higher currents to be handled.

The easy “push/click” Han-Fast Lock PCB termination fits securely in the standard plated-through hole with pad and can handle up to 60 A for discrete wire stranded conductors from 4 to 10 mm2. Undamaged contacts can be extracted and re-fitted up to ten times, simplifying equipment maintenance. In addition, during the production assembly process the connection for the external power wiring can be done after the soldering of the sensitive electronic components.
