Each circuit is rated 25 A — enough for motor contactor coils, heater loads, or power supply outputs without derating at the 105°C operating limit. Termination uses screws with captive plates — the plate stays under the screw head, so it won't drop out during field wiring. The tri-barrier (3 Wall) design isolates each circuit from its neighbor, which matters when you're probing live terminals or running mixed voltages on adjacent positions. ## Wire Range and Termination — 12-22 AWG, Screw Clamp with Captive Plate The 6PCR-08-008 accepts 12-22 AWG stranded or solid wire. The captive plate under the screw head distributes clamping force across the conductor — less risk of nicking strands compared to a bare screw point. Bottom termination is PC pin, so the block mounts through the panel and solders to a PCB or connects via a mating socket. The zinc clear chromate steel screws resist corrosion in humid cabinet environments. Eight wire entries match the eight circuits — one wire per position. The flange on each end provides a mounting hole for chassis or panel attachment, keeping the block rigid during wire insertion and removal.","metaTitle":"TE Connectivity 6PCR-08-008 Barrier Strip, 8 Circuit","metaDescription":"TE Connectivity Buchanan 6PCR-08-008 barrier block, 8 circuits, 0.375\" pitch, rated 25A at 300V.
