In order to know what terminal screwdrivers are, what they do and where they are used, we first need to learn what terminal means. Terminal blocks are equipment for safely connecting two cables together in electrical works. Terminal strips must be used in electrical installations. Thanks to these sequences, faulty wiring is avoided. If incorrect wiring is done anywhere, the wires connected to the terminal are disconnected and reassembled correctly.
Thanks to the terminal strips, connecting two cables to each other is a very easy and short-term process. There is no need for any other joining tools and equipment in the work of connecting the cable with the terminal. Terminal blocks are available in different types according to the structures, sizes and needs of the electrical circuits. For example, the terminals used for the connection of phase feeders are transition terminals and are usually gray in color. Neutral terminals are the terminals used to connect the cables with neutral structure in the circuit and are produced in blue color or shown in blue color.
The terminals used in the connection of the cables to be used in grounding are grounding terminals. In cases where the grounding busbar is not used, grounding outputs are connected to these grounding terminals. Another type of terminal is the breaking and disconnecting terminals. Thanks to these terminals, the separation process is carried out without the need to disassemble the cables. These terminal examples we have given are just a few of the total terminal examples.
The most important thing to consider when choosing a terminal block is the cable cross-sections. The cable ends must be fully inserted into the terminals, also known as the cable slots among the people. It may cause an arc fault in the circuit due to a cable that is not fully inserted into the terminal and is not compressed or is compressed more than it should be. One of the important issues regarding the use of terminals is whether the cable is with or without a ferrule. These two types of cables affect the terminal size.
What is a Terminal Screwdriver?
Terminal screwdrivers are hand tools used for terminal consumables that ensure regular and safe interconnection of electrical cables. The working logic of terminal screwdrivers is the same as the working logic of other screwdrivers. The purpose is to do the tightening or loosening of any equipment when necessary. In this context, terminal screwdrivers are one of the most used tools for terminal consumables.
We have said that there are many types for terminal blocks. Although this variety in terminals is not as much as them, there are also terminal screwdrivers. Terminal screwdrivers, just like ordinary screwdrivers, have types such as flat, star and torque.
Since there are many types of terminal screwdrivers, it is very important to buy them as a set, both economically and in terms of usability. When purchasing a terminal set, you must first know your preferences and needs. If you intend to buy terminal screwdrivers as a set. You should ask the seller to show you the item first, so you don't get any surprises after purchasing the item.
