WARNING
Risk of electric shock and damage of device!
Bring the bus terminal system into a safe, powered down state before starting installation, disassembly or
wiring of the Bus Terminals!
Overview
The Bus Terminal system offers different connection options for optimum adaptation to the respective
application:
• The terminals of KLxxxx and ELxxxx series with standard wiring include electronics and connection
level in a single enclosure.
• The terminals of KSxxxx and ESxxxx series feature a pluggable connection level and enable steady
wiring while replacing.
• The High Density Terminals (HD Terminals) include electronics and connection level in a single
enclosure and have advanced packaging density.
Standard wiring
Fig. 22: Standard wiring
The terminals of KLxxxx and ELxxxx series have been tried and tested for years.
They feature integrated screwless spring force technology for fast and simple assembly.
Pluggable wiring
Fig. 23: Pluggable wiring
The terminals of KSxxxx and ESxxxx series feature a pluggable connection level.
The assembly and wiring procedure for the KS series is the same as for the KLxxxx and ELxxxx series.
The KS/ES series terminals enable the complete wiring to be removed as a plug connector from the top of
the housing for servicing.
The lower section can be removed from the terminal block by pulling the unlocking tab.
Insert the new component and plug in the connector with the wiring. This reduces the installation time and
eliminates the risk of wires being mixed up.
The familiar dimensions of the terminal only had to be changed slightly. The new connector adds about 3
mm. The maximum height of the terminal remains unchanged.
A tab for strain relief of the cable simplifies assembly in many applications and prevents tangling of individual
connection wires when the connector is removed.
