How to Order
Stock number 1500 is used for terminal blocks on 3/8" centers, and 2000 for terminals on 7/16" centers.

1500/2000 Series terminal blocks are ordered by listing a composite number made up of the model designation in which the last two digits indicate the number of poles required for the application.
Example: A 1500 10-terminal block (3/8" centers) becomes stock number 1510; with (7/16" centers) 2010.

The 1510 described above, with double solder lug mounting on 3/8 inch centers thus converts to stock number 1510-ST. To specify quick-connect terminals, simply add the style number required. (See Accessories on page 10). May be puchased factory-assembled or a customer-installed accessory.
