It uses a screw-driven rising cage clamp termination — the screw turns, the cage rises and clamps the wire against the contact, giving a gas-tight connection that holds better under vibration than a simple screw-and-plate design. The 5.08 mm pitch is a standard spacing for industrial control terminal blocks, matching common PCB layouts for power distribution and signal termination. Wire range covers 12-30 AWG, so it handles both heavy power feeds and fine signal wires. The 35° (145°) wire entry angle lets you route wires close to the board surface, useful when the enclosure lid or adjacent components block straight-in access. Green housing is the standard Buchanan color for this series. ## 17.5 A, 300 V — Panel Power Distribution Rated 17.5 A per position at 300 V, this block suits moderate-current control panel wiring — powering contactors, relays, PLC outputs, or sensor loops. The 17.5 A rating is per-position, not total; with all six positions loaded, the block dissipates heat through the PCB copper and the PA66 housing. The rising cage clamp termination, with a specified screw torque of 0.79 Nm (7.0 Lb-In), ensures consistent contact force across the wire range. Brass contacts with tin plating keep contact resistance low for the current rating; the nickel-plated brass clamp and screw resist corrosion in industrial atmospheres. ## Side Interlocking for Multi-Position Ganging The interlocking (side) feature lets you snap multiple 282847-6 blocks together side-by-side to build a larger terminal strip without extra brackets or end plates. Each block locks into the next, maintaining alignment and pitch continuity across the assembly. This is standard for Buchanan series blocks — useful when a 6-position block is not enough and you need 12, 18, or more positions on the same PCB footprint.","metaTitle":"TE Connectivity 282847-6 Buchanan Terminal Block, 6 Pos","metaDescription":"TE Connectivity 282847-6 Buchanan PCB terminal block, 6 positions, 5.08 mm pitch, 17.5 A, 300 V, screw rising cage clamp, 35° wire entry, green.
