A field bus connection module for coupling a local bus conductor to an associated field bus system includes a housing formed from functionally different, alignable terminal blocks, and spacing elements. The terminal blocks comprise a feed block and a grounded conductor block. Removably connected with the housing is at least one functional printed circuit board. Removal of the functional printed circuit board necessarily interrupts a separable connection between the local bus conductor and the field bus, although the field bus continues to be connected to the functional printed circuit board.

Ground bus coupling module

A modular control system for connecting the electrical components of an automated system, such as switches, sensors, reactors and field units, with a master field bus system via an assembly of terminal blocks mounted on a grounded support rail, characterized in that the assembly includes a power supply terminal block, a ground terminal block, and at least one control signal terminal block for supplying control signals to control circuits carried by printed circuit boards contained within a removable electronics module. The various terminal block assemblies mounted on a given support rail are connected via internal bus bar means that is connected by a module with the master field bus.
