Review on 💡 Screw Terminal Block, PUSU Dual Row Eurostyle Terminal Strip for Electrical DIY and Home Projects, 12mm2 Wire Gauge, 12-Position 380V 20A Terminal Block (Pack of 10) by Jeff Kickthedogband

I couldn't believe the negative reviews when I read them. I thought it was a proven sound design so I bought the 3A version. I regret the purchase and regret trying to work with it. Firstly the other negative reviews are true, they will break if you reduce them to what I consider "normal". Therefore, to avoid this, all you have to do is "squeeze" them. because if you don't, i've noticed that two things will happen. If you overtighten, the screw inside will cut the stranded wire. I've tried to avoid this by soldering the bare wire before inserting it, but then you run into the problem of the spinning screw pulling the wire out of the way as you tighten the screw. The wire isn't even under the screw. It takes so many tries and so many tries that this product is useless! Separating a row of blocks from a strip is also useless, as you end up cutting the edge off one end, leaving a completely open, bare block. terribly cheap rendition of a tried and tested fantastic German design.
