ABB are a market leading manufacturer and provide DIN rail terminal accessories to meet your requirements. For instance, the ABB SMISSLINE series offers a comprehensive range of accessories that meet the requirements of electrical installations, ensuring safety and reliability. Whether you are working on a power distribution system, automation applications, or industrial control panels, ABB has got you covered.

How do DIN rail terminal accessories work?

Each individual type of DIN rail terminal accessory has a unique function. There is a vast array of accessories to accommodate DIN rail terminals. Some common DIN rail terminal accessories within the ABB range, but are not limited to, include:

• Auxiliary switches: These switches provide additional control functions, such as interlocking and signalling.
• Busbars and busbar covers: Busbars are conductive and are used for distributing electrical power to multiple terminal blocks. The busbar covers provide protection and insulation for the busbars.
• Circuit separators: Circuit separators prevent interference by creating electrical isolation between adjacent terminal blocks or circuits on the DIN rail.
• Contact pins: These enable signal transmission by effectively establishing electrical connections between terminal blocks and external components.
• Jumper bars: By assisting the parallel connection of terminals within a circuit, jumper bars are conductive and bridge connections between multiple terminal blocks.
• Mounting clips and adapters: By maintaining stability, mounting clips and adapters securely attach accessories to the DIN rail or mounting surface.
• Signal contacts: Signal contacts transmit low-voltage signals between components, ensuring a reliable interface for communication within electrical systems.
• Socket bases: These bases provide a mounting point for electrical sockets, making installations and removal of plug-in components easy and efficient.
• Terminal sockets and blocks: Terminal sockets and blocks provide connection points for electrical wires or cables, enabling the termination of wiring within electrical enclosures.
• Universal adapters:Versatile and reliable, universal adapters accommodate different types of terminal components, providing optimum flexibility within system configurations.
