Eaton C7024-06 Barrier Block Terminal Connector - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Eaton C7024-06 is a 6-circuit barrier block connector with 0.750" (19.05mm) pitch, rated for 115A at 600V, designed for chassis and panel mounting applications. This component features dual-wall barrier construction with stud termination on both top and bottom, accommodating 2-8 AWG wire gauges across 12 wire entry points arranged in 2 rows.

The C7024-06 is classified as obsolete. Identifying equivalent and substitute parts is necessary to maintain system functionality and ensure continued availability for replacement, repair, and new design implementations.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the C7024-06 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Pitch (0.750" / 19.05mm): Physical spacing between circuit positions; must match exactly for mechanical compatibility
• Termination Type (Stud): Connection method for both top and bottom; must remain consistent
• Barrier Type (2 Wall / Dual): Electrical isolation configuration; must match for safety and performance
• Current Rating (115A): Maximum continuous current capacity; substitute must meet or exceed this value
• Voltage Rating (600V): Maximum operating voltage; substitute must meet or exceed this value
• Wire Gauge (2-8 AWG): Acceptable conductor sizes; substitute must support this range
• Mounting Type (Chassis, Panel): Installation method; substitute must support these configurations
• Operating Temperature (130°C): Maximum ambient temperature rating; substitute must meet or exceed this value
• Flammability Rating (UL94 V-0): Fire safety certification; substitute must maintain this standard

The C7024-12 shares the same base product family (C7024), manufacturer, pitch, termination type, barrier configuration, electrical ratings, wire gauge compatibility, mounting options, temperature rating, and flammability certification. The primary difference is circuit count (12 vs. 6), which affects application scope but does not prevent substitution in applications requiring higher circuit density.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The C7024-12 is the primary substitute for the obsolete C7024-06. Both components are manufactured by Eaton - Bussmann Electrical Division and share identical electrical ratings (115A, 600V), mechanical specifications (0.750" pitch, dual-wall barrier construction, stud termination), and safety certifications (UL94 V-0, RoHS Compliant).

The C7024-12 maintains active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain continuity. The increased circuit count (12 vs. 6) provides expanded connectivity capacity within the same physical footprint and electrical performance envelope. Applications originally designed for the C7024-06 can transition to the C7024-12 without modification to electrical parameters, mounting interfaces, or environmental operating conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the C7024-12 directly replace the C7024-06 in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both components share identical pitch (0.750"), termination type (stud), barrier configuration (dual-wall), electrical ratings (115A, 600V), wire gauge compatibility (2-8 AWG), mounting options (chassis/panel), and operating temperature (130°C). The C7024-12 provides additional circuit capacity without compromising electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two parts?

A: The C7024-06 provides 6 circuits with 12 wire entry points, while the C7024-12 provides 12 circuits with 2 wire entries. Both maintain the same 0.750" pitch and electrical specifications. Circuit count selection depends on application requirements for connection density.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences?

A: No. Both parts maintain UL94 V-0 flammability rating and RoHS compliance. The C7024-12 is currently active in production, while the C7024-06 is obsolete.

Q: What wire gauges are supported by the substitute part?

A: The C7024-12 supports 2-8 AWG wire gauges, identical to the C7024-06 specification.

Q: Are mounting interfaces identical between these parts?

A: Yes. Both components support chassis and panel mounting configurations with identical mechanical interfaces and stud termination on top and bottom surfaces.
