Blue Sea Systems Terminal Blocks 20A - 65A

Worked out great. Blue Sea for the win!

You end up spending a little more for a Blue Sea product but they almost always offer a high quality part you won't have to worry about. This terminal block is made from a better-than-most plastic that doesn't split or crack when fastening it down. The terminal screws hold and don't strip out easily. It's amazing how fast the cost of a wiring project can balloon out of control but using quality parts will provide a safer system than running generic "unknown" parts.

High quality product.

Good

This terminal block is solid. I used them to redo the wiring on my boat. Have hot had a single failure and the connections run the amperage through in a safe and good looking manor. I'll be ordering a few more for extras.

I mean it's a terminal block and it works as proclaimed. I wouldn't try to test the 65A rating as I'm pretty sure the contacts and the plastic mount wouldn't survive the conditions. It's also not a protected block so whoever is putting the ratings for this in the comments isn't doing the consumer any favors. All in all, I needed a small block that could handle the job in a tight place and this was the perfect size. Cost was more than fair for most other options and quality was better than some higher priced alternatives as well. Cannot complain.

Handy for terminating wires.

Nothing wrong with the terminal block, but smaller than I thought. I use 14 gauge wire with heat shrink ring terminals everywhere in my boat. The ring terminals have a hole for a #10 screw. I use this size because of varying terminal block sizes on my boat, and this size is always big enough. Unfortunately, there was not enough room to get my ring terminals to fit in this block. Some filing was necessary to get them to fit, but I finally succeeded. I think the specifications for any terminal block should include wire gauge typically used for the block, and maybe the screw size.
