Abstract
A terminal block assembly (1) includes ground (16), power supply (7), and control signal (8) terminal blocks adapted for mounting as a unit on a grounded mounting bar, the assembly including a power distribution terminal section (3), a control signal terminal section (4), a field bus terminal connection section (2), and upon which assembly are mounted an electronics control module (23) and an internal bus bar (5). First control signal block terminals (4a) are connected with electrical components of the system, and second control signal block terminals (4b) are connected with ground via the electronics module. Tapped plug-in connectors (17) afford connection of bridging (12) or termination (18) link devices to the second terminals, thereby to establish the internal configuration of the assembly.
