The TE Connectivity 5055558-3 is a 10-pin screw terminal power tap designed for PCB mounting. It carries a 25 A per-circuit rating, making it suited for distributing bus-level current directly on the board — think power supply outputs, battery interconnect, or main DC rail distribution. The press-fit termination eliminates the need for soldering, which simplifies assembly and allows rework in high-reliability backplane or industrial control applications. The 6-32 screw terminals accept ring or spade lugs for field wiring; note that the screw is not included in the package.
Termination and Mounting — Press-Fit Through Hole
The press-fit termination mates into a plated through-hole without solder — the compliant pin deforms and holds by interference. The through-hole mounting provides mechanical retention beyond what surface-mount alone would offer for a 25 A power tap.
