I just need to know that I understand how these work.
If I put a positive(powered) wire in one slot the other slots will all carry the power to where I need it.

Hi Adam
Yes the description is a bit hazy isn’t it. I think all the connection points ARE joined together. There does not seem to be an “IN” and “OUT” as in a “normal” terminal block. Also the entry in the data list says
" * No. of connection Points - 5

  • No. of potentials - 1"
    Which would support that idea.
    Core might clarify this. Although you might have to wait for stock to arrive for that to happen.
    Cheers Bob

Hey Adam,

Can confirm that Rob is correct, all 5 terminals are connected together electrically. Connecting a wire to one terminal will connect them to all the others. Been using these for a while and they are super handy for projects before they get made on protoboard.

Cheers!
