Count your circuits, add a spare pole or two, and choose the heavy duty block when a circuit carries more than 20 A or more than 150 V. Use ring terminals or spade terminals on the wires for secure screw connections.

FAQ

Ring or spade on a terminal block?

A spade slides under the screw without removing it; a ring goes over the screw and cannot slip off if it loosens.
