## Notes

- MKDS 1,5 (the common green 2–6 position block, 1.5 mm² wire, 5.08 mm pitch): 2-pos is about 10.2 × 9.4 × 10.2 mm; add 5.08 mm per position. The 5.00 mm pitch version is the metric twin.
- MKDS 3 (2.5 mm², 5.08 mm): taller and deeper, about 12.5 mm high. Wire enters horizontally from the board edge; leave 15 mm for the wire and screwdriver access from above.
- Printed enclosures: cut a slot 9.5 mm tall per block row at the board edge, 0.5 mm clearance each side.

## Questions

**What is the pitch of the green screw terminal blocks?**

5.08 mm (0.2 in) for the common ones (MKDS 1,5/5.08, KF301); 5.00 mm metric and 3.5 / 3.81 / 2.54 mm versions exist and don't interchange.

**How tall is a 5.08 mm terminal block?**

About 10.2 mm for MKDS 1,5 (1.5 mm²), 12.5 mm for MKDS 3 (2.5 mm²); width is 5.08 mm per position plus 0.1.
