Fast board connections, consistent quality

PCB connectors join conductors to boards quickly and consistently. We help select screwless connectors suited to your conductor, space and process for dependable connections.

Common Applications

  • OEM luminaire manufacturing
  • Compact and space-limited fittings
  • High-volume production environments
  • Module-to-driver connection

Common questions

  • How do I choose the right PCB connector?

    Connector choice depends on the conductor type – solid or stranded – and size, the current, the board layout and pitch, and the available space. Screwless push-in connectors suit fast, repeatable termination. Share your conductor details, board and how the product is assembled, and we can help identify a suitable connector and confirm compatibility with your build.

  • What conductors do screwless connectors accept?

    Electro Terminal push-in connectors use spring-clamp technology and are designed for solid or stranded conductors within defined cross-sections and current ratings. Choosing a connector matched to your conductor is essential for a secure, reliable connection. Share the conductor type and size and we can help identify a compatible connector for dependable board connections.

  • Are push-in connectors faster than screw terminations?

    Yes, typically. Push-in spring-clamp connectors let a prepared conductor be inserted directly for a fast, tool-free connection, which speeds up assembly and improves repeatability compared with screw terminations, particularly in volume production and compact fittings. Suitability depends on the conductor and process, and we can advise on the right product for efficient, dependable assembly.

Frequently asked questions

  • What information do you need to recommend a PCB connector?

    The most useful details are the conductor type – solid or stranded – and cross-sectional size, the current, the board layout and pitch, and the available internal space. With this we can identify a suitable screwless connector and confirm compatibility with your conductor and process, and flag anything that needs checking before production.

  • Can push-in connectors be used with both solid and stranded conductors?

    They are designed for solid or stranded conductors within defined cross-sections, though the suitable product can depend on the conductor. Using a connector rated for your conductor is essential for a secure connection. Share the conductor type and size and we can identify a compatible push-in connector, so connections are reliable in assembly and in service.

  • Are Electro Terminal connectors suitable for high-volume or semi-automated assembly?

    Yes. Tool-free push-in connectors suit efficient production and can support semi-automated assembly, depending on the connector and process. We help identify connectors that fit your method and board, supporting repeatable, consistent connections across a run. Sharing your assembly process lets us recommend a suitable connector for volume production.

  • Do you provide product data for PCB connectors?

    Yes. We can provide datasheets and technical documentation to support connector selection and assembly. Tell us the products or application and we can supply the relevant data, or help identify a suitable connector from your conductor and board requirements, supporting accurate selection and dependable assembly.

  • Can you supply PCB connectors alongside other lighting components?

    Yes. We can supply Electro Terminal connectors alongside Tridonic drivers, modules and controls, so you can source a more complete build from one place. We help match connectors to the components and conductors in your luminaire, supporting efficient assembly and dependable connections across the whole product.
