Terminal block and monitoring system using this terminal block

Abstract

The invention relates to a terminal block assembly capable of reducing wiring work and wiring errors to save installation labor, providing flexibility of necessary functions and, even as the number of contact terminals increases, providing flexibility of necessary functions with high scalability.The terminal block (10) is the minimum component for constructing a measurement system using a sensor or control system for the device to be monitored and / or controlled, using a measurement system in which the terminal block (10) is used, between the sensor or device to be controlled, connected below the terminal block (10), and the master device (28) or (30) is connected above the terminal block (10); the terminal block consists of multiple contact terminals (12) and is electrically connected to the sensor or device to be controlled, through any contact terminal (12); and the terminal block (10) is configured so that it is possible to make direct connections between the terminal block (10) and another terminal block (10) and between the terminal block (10) and the master device (28) or (30) via a common bus.
