5-Circuit, 0.375" Pitch Barrier Strip for Power Distribution
The TE Connectivity Buchanan 5-1546686-3 is a 5-circuit barrier strip from the #6 series, designed for terminating individual power or control wires to a PCB. The 0.375" (9.53 mm) pitch provides generous spacing between terminals, making it straightforward to land 12-22 AWG wire without crowding adjacent screws. The three-wall barrier design (Tri-barrier) isolates each terminal position, reducing the chance of a stray strand bridging to the next circuit.
Termination and Mounting — Screw Top, PC Pin Bottom
Wire termination is via a steel screw with zinc/clear chromate finish — a corrosion-resistant combination that holds up in industrial cabinet environments. The 5 wire entries match the 5 circuits: one wire per position. The screw is captive, so it won't fall out during wiring. No crimp terminals needed — you strip the wire, insert it under the clamp, and tighten the screw.
