Schneider Electric ZBE1016 Contact Block Screw Terminal

Product Description

The SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC ZBE1016 is a normally open (NO) contact block designed for use with push-button and selector switch assemblies in industrial and commercial control panels. It features screw terminal connections and supports multiple amperage ratings depending on the voltage and current type: 6 amps at 120 VAC, 3 amps at 240 VAC, 1.2 amps at 600 VAC, 0.55 amps at 125 VDC, 0.27 amps at 250 VDC, and 0.10 amps at 600 VDC. The compact form factor measures 1.2 inches long, 1.1 inches wide, and 0.4 inches tall, making it suitable for dense panel installations. Licensed electricians and industrial control panel builders are the primary installers.

The ZBE1016 is intended for use in industrial and commercial control panel assemblies where a normally open contact block is required. It is a replacement-grade component suited for motor control centers, machine control stations, and operator interface assemblies. The screw terminal design accommodates standard field wiring without specialty tooling. This part is appropriate for both new panel builds and field replacement of worn or failed contact blocks in existing switch assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the NEC and any applicable local codes. De-energize and lock out the control panel before removing or installing any contact block. Screw terminals should be tightened to the fastener manufacturer specification using an appropriate flat-blade screwdriver. Verify contact configuration and amperage rating against the circuit requirements before placing the panel back into service.
