<p>Barrier strips are screw-type electrical connectors that allow more than one circuit to connect to another circuit. Wires are clamped down to a metal part by tightening of a screw. Multiple screw terminals are arranged such that the metal strips are separated by a barrier or insulating block.</p><h2>How do barrier strips work?</h2><p>Each strip will have a pair of screws arranged such that each screw connects to a separate conductor on either end of the strip. Alternatively, terminal strips have several screws along two strips, creating a bus bar for the distribution of power.</p><p>Barrier strips can accommodate a broad range of wire sizes and provide a reliable connection. The term &ldquo;contact&rdquo; refers to the wire attached to the barrier and the contact pitch refers to the distance between each contact, measured from the centre of each opening or hole.</p><h2>Applications of Barrier strips</h2><p>Barrier strips are extensively used in electrical wiring for distributing electricity, connecting switches, electrical outlets and lighting fixtures to the mains. They&rsquo;re also used to directly connect major appliances such as ovens. You will also find barrier strips in surge protectors and speakers.</p>
