Why Choose the Cembre Z35T-11D Terminal Block?
The Cembre Z35T-11D, manufacturer code 2844221, is a robust 11-way single-pole connection and branch terminal block designed for high-current conductor distribution and equipotential bonding applications. Part of the Cembre Z35T range, it combines a high-capacity 35 mm² connection with ten 6 mm² ways, providing a practical solution for distributing a common electrical potential across multiple conductors.
The Z35T-11D uses an indirect screw-clamping connection system with conical conductor entry holes to simplify wire insertion. Its conductive elements incorporate electrolytic copper components with protective surface treatment, while the clamping components use zinc-plated hardened steel for dependable mechanical performance. A robust transparent polycarbonate insulating housing provides visual access while delivering IP20 protection and a UL 94 V-0 self-extinguishing rating.
With a nominal voltage of 450 V, operating current of 170 A and short-circuit current rating of 6.5 kA, the Z35T-11D is suited to demanding electrical distribution and bonding applications. The D version incorporates a steel attachment for mounting on standard DIN rail, making it particularly convenient for professional control panels, distribution assemblies and equipotential bonding systems.

Reliable Distribution and Equipotential Bonding
Multi-way terminal blocks such as the Cembre Z35T-11D provide a convenient method of connecting a larger conductor to multiple smaller conductors on a common electrical potential. Its combination of one 35 mm² connection and ten 6 mm² ways makes it particularly useful for distribution and equipotential earth bonding nodes where several conductors need to terminate at a common point.
The indirect clamping system applies secure mechanical pressure without relying on the screw itself to make direct contact with the conductor. Combined with the copper conductive elements, robust steel clamping components and polycarbonate enclosure, this construction provides a stable and effective connection for professional electrical installations.
Typical Applications
- Equipotential earth bonding systems.
- Industrial control panels and electrical cabinets.
- Power and conductor distribution systems.
- Medical-location electrical installations.
- Residential and commercial bonding installations.
- Industrial machinery and automation systems.
- DIN-rail electrical distribution assemblies.
