A terminal block is a tool used to connect two or more wires together. Also known as a terminal block connector, these blocks use a clamping component and conducting strip to secure and organize connecting wires. While Barrier Strips is an interconnect which consist of a metal strip, and connectors or screws, that allow for the termination and connection of wires
IEC-style terminal blocks are typically all short PCB solder connections for wave soldering. Barrier Strips also have short PCB solder connections but also can make quick connections, longer solder pins, hand wired for hand soldering, screw threads, solder turrets, and more.
