The 828 Series feedthrough terminal block, now UL Certified for 600 V/40 A, provides tool and maintenance-free, through-panel terminations for control-panel applications such as motor-control centers, UPS systems, and electric-vehicle charging stations.

Developed for alternative-energy inverter systems, the block aids separating field-wired power-input connections from sensitive electronics by simplifying the passing of conductors through enclosure walls, creating subpanels where power-input connections can be made outside the protected area of enclosures or control panels. Terminations are made by lifting the lever, inserting a stripped conductor (16-6 awg) into the termination port, and lowering the lever.
