  • Tubular Contacts - Connect stripped, un-terminated solid or stranded wire directly to each contact for versatile installation
  • Recessed Screws - Provide added safety and help prevent short circuits in electrical panels and junction boxes
  • Modular Design - 12-circuit configuration can be cut into sections or stacked end to end for custom applications

Safety & Compliance

  • UL 94V2 Rated Construction - Rugged nylon material meets stringent fire safety standards for electrical applications
  • Short Circuit Prevention - Recessed screw design and tubular contacts minimize risk of accidental contact
  • Professional Installation Safety - Wire protectors and secure termination reduce installation hazards

Technical Specifications

12-circuit modular terminal block with rugged nylon construction rated to UL 94V2 fire safety standards. Features integrated wire protectors, tubular contacts for direct wire connection, and recessed screws for enhanced safety. Modular design allows cutting into sections or stacking configurations. Compatible with solid and stranded wire terminations for versatile electrical connection applications.

Installation & Setup

  1. Mount barrier strip in electrical panel or junction box ensuring proper clearances for safe operation
  2. Strip wire ends to appropriate length for tubular contact insertion without exposing excess conductor
  3. Insert stripped wire directly into tubular contact ensuring full engagement for reliable connection
  4. Tighten recessed screws to manufacturer specifications using appropriate screwdriver for secure termination
  5. Verify all connections are tight and properly seated before energizing circuit
  6. Test continuity and proper circuit operation following electrical safety procedures

Ideal Industries 89-612 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can the Ideal 89-612 12-circuit barrier strip be cut down to fewer circuits?
Yes. The 89-612 barrier strip is built as a modular 12-circuit block that can be cut into shorter sections or stacked end to end, so one part covers a 4-pole control job and a 24-point distribution job alike. Cut it to the pole count the enclosure needs rather than ordering separate sizes.
2) Does the Ideal 89-612 terminal block need ring terminals or spade lugs on the wire?
No lugs needed. The 89-612 uses tubular contacts that take stripped, un-terminated wire directly, solid or stranded, clamped under a recessed screw. Strip to the contact depth without leaving bare conductor exposed. If your shop standard is ring-terminal landings, this is not that style of strip.
3) Will stranded wire hold up in the Ideal barrier strip, or does it need ferrules?
Stranded lands directly. The 89-612 has integrated wire protectors at each contact that keep the strands from twisting or breaking as the screw is driven, which is the usual failure on a plain screw-and-plate strip. That is the reason to pick this one for control and signal runs pulled in stranded.
4) What is the flammability rating on the Ideal 89-612 barrier strip housing?
The housing is nylon rated UL 94V2. That is the material's flame rating on the block itself and it is what a spec reviewer or facility engineer will ask for when the strip goes inside a panel or control enclosure.
5) Is a barrier strip like the Ideal 89-612 safer than wire nuts inside a crowded junction box?
For multi-circuit work it is a different job. Wire nuts join conductors; the 89-612 organizes twelve separate circuits on a fixed, labeled landing you can land, lift, and troubleshoot one pole at a time. Its screws sit recessed to cut the chance of a tool or a stray strand bridging adjacent poles. For a single splice of two or three conductors, a connector is the simpler answer.
6) Can I use the Ideal 89-612 for low voltage alarm and HVAC control wiring, not just line voltage panels?
Yes, that is a common use for it. The 89-612 is used for HVAC control circuit landings, security and alarm distribution, telecom low voltage routing, and industrial control and signal distribution, as well as branch circuit organization in panels and junction boxes. Same block, same tubular contacts, whichever of those you are wiring.
