What is the difference between short terminal and long terminal shields ?

1-Short terminal shields

They are used with:

a-      plug-in and withdrawable versions in all connection configurations

b-      fixed versions with rear connection.

2-Long terminal shields

They are used for front connection with cables or insulated bars.

They comprise two parts assembled with captive screws, forming an IP40 cover.

a-      The top part is equipped with sliding grids with break marks for precise adaptation

to cables or insulated bars.

be removed to adapt to all types of connection for cables with lugs or copper bars.

provided by the mandatory short terminal shields on the device
