New Heyco ERTB High Current Terminal Blocks Accept Aluminium Wire
As Well As Copper

Heyco Products, Inc., an industry leader in the design and
manufacture of precision-molded wire-protection products and stamped
metal electrical components, introduces ERTB Terminal Blocks
for all high current draw and aluminium wire applications.
Product Applications:
Small footprint, three-pole ERTB Terminal Blocks provide
secure, reliable points of connection and transmission for incoming
power line service to electrical equipment of many kinds. ERTB
is especially suited for high-capacity standard copper listed or
new UL-aluminium wire connections in consumer or commercial
appliances, such as electric ranges, washers and dryers; electric
water heaters, heat pumps, power generators, HVAC equipment,
machinery and other applications that require high-current copper or
aluminium wire hook-ups.
Product Description: ERTB Terminal Blocks
are compact, sturdy post-to-clamp
style unitised blocks that mount to any cabinet or housing
attachment point. Each of these electrical poles has a protective
strip under each tightening screw that does not pierce either
copper-wire strands or softer aluminium wire, holding both equally
tight. Where aluminium wire is used, it needs minimal torque at
installation, to remain secure without working loose from
current-induced expansion and contraction.
Each low-profile terminal block has a single row, three-wire pole
design that accommodates line voltage on one or two poles, handling
neutral and ground wires on the one or two remaining poles. Poles
accept 6-4 AWG aluminium wire, or 10-6 AWG copper stranded wire
rated to 300 volts, 60 amps. Low installation torqueing for "hot"
leads allows reliable connections to be made quickly, easily, and
resist loosening during operation. A solid-copper grounding strap on
the centre pole assures safety.
Construction & Finishes: ERTB Terminal Blocks
are molded in Heyco's own
state-of-the-art U.S. plant of impact-resistant polycarbonate with a
flammability classification of 94V-0 and a temperature rating of 1250
Celsius. ERTB Terminal Blocks are UL recognized under
component file #E235481, and certified by the Canadian Standards
Association, File #LR-8919.
