plaque à bornes

OBS: Le terme «bornier», court et maniable, est l'équivalent parfait de «terminal board» et «terminal strip» lorsqu'il n'est pas important de connaître la forme de l'élément. Ce dernier est alors nommé seulement d'après sa fonction.
OBS: plaque à bornes : terme normalisé par la Commission électrotechnique internationale (CEI).

CONT: A terminal strip is made of a strong insulating material with metal studs molded into the material or inserted through it. The studs are anchored so that they cannot turn and are of sufficient length to accommodate four terminals. Between each pair of studs are barriers to prevent cable terminals attached to different studs from coming into contact with each other. When it is necessary to join more than four terminals at a terminal strip, two or more of the studs are connected with a metal bus, and the terminals are then connected to the studs with no more than four terminals on any one stud.
OBS: terminal board: term standardized by the International Electrotechnical Commission and officially approved by the Comité d'uniformisation de la mécanisation postale.
