Terminal blocks are where wiring is joined, often where the supply cable meets the internal wiring on hard-wired ovens and cooktops. As there's no model list on file for it, match the number on the old block or your parts list, and check that the number of terminals is the same.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBurnt or loose terminal block symptoms\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery connection in a terminal block carries the full current of the circuits wired through it. If a screw works loose, the joint heats up, and over time the plastic can scorch, melt or crack. Signs include a burning smell, discoloured terminals, a circuit breaker tripping, or an appliance that loses power to some zones or elements and not others. A heat-damaged block can't be fixed by cleaning it up. It should be replaced along with any scorched wire ends.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine BSH part 636298\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlso listed as 00636298\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTerminal block for Bosch, Siemens and Neff appliances\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eLicensed electrician required\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTurn off the circuit at the switchboard and prove it's dead before touching any wiring.
