Phoenix Contact 3240212 SKS 20 Shield connection terminal block

The Phoenix Contact SKS 20 is a shield connection terminal block designed to apply cable shields directly to busbars. It uses spring-cage connection technology and accepts rigid and flexible conductors from 10 mm² to 20 mm², with external cable diameters from 5 mm to 20 mm. Built from steel with a 24.7 mm pitch, it is suited to robust industrial shielding applications.
