Product Information
Full details
The Phoenix Contact UK 6-FSI/C-LED24 is a single-level, fused terminal block designed for securely connecting wires, particularly for grounding on PCBs. Its key benefit is the integrated fuse protection, which safeguards connected components from overvoltage by breaking the circuit. A potential caveat is its specific AWG range, requiring users to ensure wire compatibility.

FAQs
What is the maximum voltage and current rating for this terminal block?
The rated current is 30A and the rated voltage is 250V.
What wire sizes can be used with the UK 6-FSI/C-LED24?
It is compatible with wire sizes ranging from 26 AWG to 8 AWG.
How is this terminal block mounted?
It is designed for mounting on a standard 35 mm top-hat DIN rail.
What type of termination does it use?
It uses screw connections for terminating wires.
Does this terminal block come with a fuse included?
The product description indicates it is a 'fused' terminal block, implying it is designed to accept a fuse. It is recommended to check the specific product packaging or datasheet for confirmation of included accessories.
What is the purpose of the 'FSI' in the model name?
The 'FSI' typically denotes 'Fuse' and 'Spring' or 'Screw' terminal in Phoenix Contact's naming conventions, indicating its fused nature and connection type.
What is the flammability class of the insulation material?
The insulation material has a flammability class of V0, in accordance with UL94 standards.
Troubleshooting
Terminal block not holding wire securely
Ensure the wire is stripped correctly and fully inserted. Tighten the screw firmly, but do not overtighten, which can strip the threads. Check that the wire gauge is within the specified range (26-8 AWG).
Fuse blows repeatedly
This indicates an overcurrent or short circuit condition in the connected equipment. Investigate the connected circuit for faults. Ensure the fuse rating is appropriate for the circuit's normal operating current.
Difficulty mounting on DIN rail
Verify that you are using a standard 35 mm top-hat DIN rail. Ensure the rail is clean and free of debris. Check that the terminal block's mounting clip is not damaged.
Poor electrical connection or intermittent signal
Check that all wire connections are tight. Ensure the wire strands are making good contact with the terminal screw. Inspect the terminal block and wiring for any signs of corrosion or damage.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Provides essential overvoltage protection through its fused design.
- Offers secure and reliable wire connections via screw terminals.
- Easy installation on standard 35mm DIN rails.
- Compatible with a broad range of wire gauges (26-8 AWG).
- Durable materials ensure a long service life and safety compliance.
Cons
- Requires a specific fuse type for replacement.
- Single-level design may not be suitable for complex multi-level wiring needs.
- The 8.2mm width, while compact, may be a consideration in extremely space-constrained applications.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Mounting: The terminal block is designed to be mounted on a standard 35 mm top-hat DIN rail. Ensure the rail is securely installed.
- Wire Connection: Strip the end of your wire to the appropriate length (refer to terminal block marking or documentation if available).
- Insert the stripped wire into the screw terminal opening.
- Using a suitable screwdriver, tighten the screw firmly to secure the wire. Ensure a solid electrical connection without overtightening.
- Fuse Installation: If a fuse is not pre-installed, insert the correct fuse type and rating into the designated slot.
Compatibility:
- Wire Gauge: Compatible with American Wire Gauge (AWG) sizes from 26 to 8.
- DIN Rail: Designed for standard 35 mm top-hat DIN rails.
- Fuse Type: Requires a specific fuse; consult product documentation for exact specifications.
Care:
- Cleaning: Disconnect power before cleaning. Use a dry or slightly damp cloth to wipe down the exterior. Avoid harsh chemicals or solvents.
- Fuse Replacement: Only replace fuses with the exact same rating and type. Ensure power is disconnected before replacing a fuse.
- Inspection: Periodically inspect the terminal block for any signs of damage, corrosion, or loose connections. Tighten screws if necessary, ensuring power is off.
