Ideal Industries 89-506 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire sizes will the IDEAL 89-506 terminal strip accept?
The 89-506 takes copper conductors from 22 AWG up to 6 AWG on the same strip, so you can land control wiring and feeder-size conductors on one block. It's copper only, and the #10-32 nickel-plated brass terminal screws are what the lugs or ring terminals land under.
2) How tight should I torque the screws on an IDEAL 89-506 terminal block?
20 in.-lb. on the terminal screws. Use a torque screwdriver rather than feel; the screws are #10-32 Philslot and will take either a slotted or a Phillips bit, which makes it easy to overshoot by hand on the small-gauge terminations.
3) Can I use the IDEAL 89-506 as a ground or neutral bar?
It's a 6-pole barrier terminal strip, meaning each pole is isolated from the next. That makes it a junction point for six separate circuits or conductor pairs, not a common bus. If you need multiple conductors bonded to a single point, you want a ground bar or a jumpered strip instead, since nothing on the 89-506 ties the poles together out of the box.
4) Will the IDEAL 89-506 hold up in a damp mechanical room or outdoor enclosure?
The screws, surface plates, and optional hardware are heavy-duty and corrosion-resistant, and the base is a rugged polyester thermoplastic. That's the block itself; in a wet or damp location it still belongs inside an enclosure rated for the environment, since this is a Recognized component rather than a listed standalone device.
5) What's the exact IDEAL part number for the 6-pole 22-6 AWG terminal strip?
IDEAL Industries 89-506. That is the manufacturer part number as well as the model, so it's the number to quote for reorder or to match against an existing block in the panel.
