Low-voltage switchgear and controlgear - Part 7-2: Ancillary equipment - Protective conductor terminal blocks for copper conductors
Abstract
This part of IEC 60947 specifies requirements for protective conductor terminal blocks (PE and PEN conductors) with screw-type or screwless-type clamping units, primarily intended for industrial applications or similar use in circuits of a rated voltage not exceeding 1 000 V AC up to 1 000 Hz or 1 500 V DC, most commonly in conjunction with terminal blocks according to IEC 60947-7-1:2025. This document applies to protective conductor terminal blocks with PE function having a cross-section between 0,05 mm²/30 AWG and 150 mm²/300 kcmil and protective conductor terminal blocks with PEN function having a cross-section between 10 mm²/ 8 AWG and 150 mm²/300 kcmil. Protective conductor terminal blocks are intended to form the electrical and mechanical connection between round copper conductors with or without special preparation and the fixing support.
