Ideal Industries 89-202 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How many poles can I get on the Ideal 89-series terminal strip?
Five pole counts are offered: 2-pole (89-202), 3-pole (89-203), 4-pole (89-204), 6-pole (89-206) and 8-pole (89-208). Pick by the number of separate circuits you need to land, not by wire count, since each pole takes a conductor on each side.
2) Will this terminal block accept 12 AWG and 14 AWG building wire?
Yes. The Ideal 89-series barrier strip is rated for 22 through 10 AWG copper, so standard 12 and 14 AWG branch-circuit conductors land in it without adapters, as do small 18 and 22 AWG control and thermostat wires.
3) What torque should I use on the terminal screws?
Tighten the #8-32 Philslot zinc-plated steel screws to 16 in.-lb. That is the recommended value for the 89-series strip; hitting it with a torque screwdriver is what keeps the connection from loosening under thermal cycling and is what an inspector on a commercial panel job will ask about.
4) Is this terminal strip UL and CSA approved for a commercial control panel?
It is UL Recognized under file E82048 and CSA Certified under LR15364, and the polyester thermoplastic base carries a UL 94V-0 flame retardant rating. That covers both US and Canadian installations for panel and control cabinet work.
5) What is the terminal spacing on the Ideal 89 barrier strip, and will it fit my existing mounting layout?
Center spacing is 0.562 inch (14.82 mm) pole to pole. Multiply that by your pole count to work out the run length before you commit space in a control cabinet or junction box, and confirm it matches the spacing of the strip you are replacing if you are reusing wire lengths and labels.
6) Screw barrier strip or push-in lever connectors for a control panel?
A screw barrier strip like the Ideal 89-series is the right choice when you need each conductor landed on an identifiable, labelled position that can be metered, disconnected and re-terminated, which is how motor control centers, PLC panels and HVAC control cabinets are normally built. Push-in or twist-on connectors are faster for a dead splice inside a box but give you no per-circuit test point and no separation between poles. If the wiring will be serviced or troubleshot later, use the barrier strip.
7) Can I use one of these to splice several wires together in a junction box instead of wire nuts?
Yes, that is one of its intended uses. Multi-wire splicing and distribution in junction and pull boxes is a standard application for the 89-series strip, and it gives you a labelled, re-openable joint instead of a buried nut. Keep conductors within the 22-10 AWG copper range and torque each screw to 16 in.-lb.
8) What material is the base, and will it hold up in a hot or damp equipment enclosure?
The base is polyester thermoplastic with a UL 94V-0 flame retardant rating, chosen for chemical resistance and dimensional stability, and the terminal screws are zinc-plated steel for corrosion resistance. That combination is what lets it sit in enclosures that see temperature swings, moisture and airborne contaminants.
9) Does the Ideal 89 terminal strip come with mounting hardware?
Plan on supplying your own mounting screws. The strip is fastened to the panel or junction box with hardware appropriate to that surface; what ships with the strip are the #8-32 Philslot terminal screws for the conductors themselves.
