The 0.375\" (9.53mm) pitch spaces the terminals wide enough to land 12-22 AWG stranded wire without crowding — the screw-and-captive-plate top termination clamps the conductor directly, no ferrule or crimp required. ## Mounting and Termination — Two Ways to Install The mounting style is listed as chassis/panel or through-hole — the flange features let you bolt the block to a panel face, and the PC pins on the bottom termination let you solder it directly into a PCB. For a panel-mount install the flange holds the block rigid against the enclosure wall, which keeps the screw terminals from torquing the solder joints if you're also using the PC pin option. The bottom termination is PC pin, meaning the pins protrude through the board for wave-soldering; the 0.375\" pitch matches standard terminal-spacing drill patterns. The 3-wall (tri) barrier between each circuit isolates adjacent terminals — if a stripped strand breaks free it won't bridge to the next circuit. That current level puts this block in the same class as a 12 AWG wire's ampacity in a 60°C-rated bundle — it's sized for a power distribution rail, not a control signal. The steel screws with zinc clear chromate finish resist corrosion in the panel environment; the captive plate keeps the screw from falling out when you loosen it for wire changes. The 6 circuits give you six independent termination points, each capable of carrying the full 25 A, so you can land six separate branch circuits or parallel the circuits for higher current on a single feed (though the block itself is rated per circuit, not summed). The 6PCV-06-008 shows an Active lifecycle status — no EOL notice, no last-time-buy window. It is RoHS compliant.","metaTitle":"6PCV-06-008 Buchanan Barrier Block, 6 Circuit, 25A, 300V","metaDescription":"Buy 6PCV-06-008 barrier strip from Buchanan, #6 series. 6 circuits, 0.375\" pitch, 25A, 300V, screws with captive plate.
