Phoenix Contact 3036165 ST 16-PE Spring-cage protective conductor terminal block

The Phoenix Contact ST 16-PE is a spring-cage protective conductor terminal block with a nominal cross section of 16 mm², engineered for fast, reliable DIN rail grounding. Its spring-cage connection accepts rigid conductors from 0.2 mm² to 25 mm² and flexible conductors up to 16 mm², with no cross-section restrictions when ferrules are used. Direct DIN rail contact eliminates additional wiring effort for PE connections.
