Phoenix Contact 3212147 PT 16 N-PE Protective conductor terminal block

The Phoenix Contact PT 16 N-PE is a protective conductor terminal block from the PT product family, providing fast, reliable grounding via tool-free push-in connection. It accepts rigid and flexible conductors from 0.5 mm² to 25 mm² and mounts on NS 35/7.5 or NS 35/15 DIN rails, meeting IEC 60947-7-2 requirements for protective conductor connections. The green-yellow color coding and integrated grounding foot ensure a low-resistance connection to ground potential directly through the top-hat rail.
