Lead Bipolar

Bipolar lead

Bipolar taps are elements of an electrical circuit designed to drain current from the load and connect a power source. These designs are widely used in radio electronics as components of devices and elements of electrical circuits.

The main elements of a bipolar tap are: forward feed bus (poles “A”, “B”), return feed bus (“C”), ground contact (“E”). Designs are also allowed where there is no additional return feed bus, and the contact is connected directly to the bipolar input housing. Bends of classes above “6” can have upper and lower feed bars. According to the MIL standard, with a reverse current allowable of ± 400 mA, the contacts serving as feedback lines must be soldered. For large loads, they can easily be soldered or tinned. In circuits operating at low currents, it is allowed to use ordinary non-insulated contact cavities. The outlet body is made of steel, has a hexagonal shape, and serves only as an electrical shield. Installation is carried out both by soldering and threaded connections.
