In the electrical or electrical field: connectors and connectors are the same type of product. It is generally understood as the kind of electronic components that can be quickly connected by plugging or twisting one end of the male connector and the female connector without tools. Terminals, generally understood as the need to use some kind of tool, such as screwdriver, cold press.
Electronic products that can connect two connection points together only with pliers are generally used for power input and output.
The terminal is a part of the connector, and the connector is a general term. In fact, the common connectors we usually see usually include two parts: the housing and the terminal. The plastic shell is generally plastic, which plays a protective role; the terminal is generally metal, which plays the role of conduction at both ends of the product.
Electrical connectors, referred to as "connectors" for short, like UL connectors. They are a subdivision of electronic components and are mainly used in the connection between circuits. In the current electronic industry, the line connection of connectors can be said to be ubiquitous, so the use range of connectors is wide and can be indirectly applied in various industries.
There are many types of connectors, such as rectangular connectors, circular connectors, stepped connectors, UL connectors etc. The terminal block is a kind of connector that generally belongs to the rectangular connector. The use range of the terminal block is also relatively simple. It is generally used in the field of electronics and electrical and is used for internal and external connections of PCB circuit boards, printed boards, and power distribution cabinets.
Terminal blocks are used more and more, and there are more and more types. In addition to PCB board terminals, hardware terminals, nut terminals, spring terminals, etc. are widely used at present. In the power industry, there are special terminal blocks and terminal boxes, all of which are terminal blocks, single-layer, double-layer, current, voltage, etc.
