Beginning connector industry, some practitioners can not distinguish between "connectors", "terminals", "waterproof connectors" between the three conceptual differences, attributable to the differences in planning, as well as practical Utilization differences. In this paper, we introduce in detail the differences between the three: First, the concept of difference ① connector, that is, CONNECTOR, also known as automotive connectors. Is often contact with electronic engineering and technical personnel of a component. Domestic also known as waterproof connectors, plugs and sockets. Generally refers to electrical automotive connectors. That is, the device that connects two active devices to transmit current or signal. ② waterproof connector is a kind of connecting electronic circuit positioning connector, is composed of 2 parts, that is, plug-in, and connector, in general, can be completely separate, switch and waterproof connector of the same place is through the contact of its contact on the contact situation of the change, complete the purpose of the transformation of the circuit connected to it, but the essence of the difference lies in the plug-in only need to be pierced into the pull-out of the two cases, the switch can be completed in its own body of circuitry, while the waterproof connector does not. Switch can complete the circuit on its body conversion, and waterproof connectors can not be completed on the body of the conversion, waterproof connectors contact on the existence of a fixed corresponding contact, therefore, waterproof connectors can also be called automotive connectors. Terminal is a kind of accessory product used to complete the electrical connection, which is industrially classified as the category of automobile connector. Terminal is to facilitate the connection of wires and the use of it is actually a section of metal sealed inside the insulating plastic, both ends have holes, can be pierced into the wire. Terminals can be divided into WUK terminals, European terminal block series, plug type terminal block series.

Second, from the belonging to the planning on the distinction ① "automotive connectors = waterproof connectors" is the first category, terminals are only "automotive connectors" in the category of a kind. Automotive connector is a wire to wire connection; waterproof connector is a wire and board and box connection. Practical use is often categorized as a class. ②Terminal is part of the automotive connector. Automotive connector is a general term, in fact, we commonly see the car connector, usually contains two major parts of the rubber shell and terminals. housing is mostly plastic, play a protective role, terminal is metal, play a role in conduction. ③ in the electrician, electrical category: automotive connectors, plugs, waterproof connectors are the same product. Apparently understand, is the kind of things do not have to, male and female head with a hand or a screw can be quickly connected to the East East. Terminal, a simple understanding, that is, the kind of things to use, such as screwdrivers, cold pliers in order to connect the two east to east, generally used for power input and output. English name Terminal (terminal). Third, the practical use of the distinction between electrical automotive connectors referred to as automotive connectors, also known as waterproof connectors, is a sub-category of electronic components, mainly used for the connection between the circuit and the circuit. In industrial production, line connection can be said to be ubiquitous, so the use of automotive connectors planning is of course very extensive, used in various industries. Automotive connectors are divided into many categories, such as rectangular automotive connectors, circular automotive connectors, ladder-type automotive connectors, etc., terminal block is a kind of automotive connectors, generally attributed to the rectangular automotive connectors. The use of terminal block planning is relatively single, generally used in the field of electrical and electronic, for PCB circuit boards, printed circuit boards and distribution cabinets in the table line. The use of terminal planning more and more, and more and more types. Now the most widely used in addition to PCB board terminals, there are hardware terminals, nut terminals, spring terminals, etc., in the electric power industry has a special terminal row, terminal box, full of terminals, single-layer, double-layer, current, voltage, general, can be broken and so on. In general, "automotive connectors", "terminals", "waterproof connectors" are the same as a concept of different forms of expression of the use of different practices according to the use of different being Named.
