Description

8 point power distribution post from VTE that allows multiple power cables to be connected to a central distribution point. These are typically used for distributing power from a main feed to lower current circuits or for joining ground cables in marine and automotive applications. Their compact footprint means these can offer a better solution than long busbars in locations where space is tight.

Each screw terminal is rated to 20A, the main connection post is 7.9mm diameter (use an 8mm tube terminal) and the smaller screw terminals are 4.1mm diameter (use 4.3mm ring terminals).

The post is secured via two mounting holes in the base and the fixings are corrosion resistant for use on boats and in harsh environments.

Optional clear insulating disc available (sold separately) - P01544

For protection of the connection post against accidental shorts see our range of push-on covers.

Sold individually.
