Product Overview
The GE IC670TBM002 Field Control Auxiliary Terminal Strip is a connection component used within GE Field Control distributed I/O installations. Unlike an input or output module, it does not perform signal processing. Its job is associated with the physical termination and organization of wiring around the I/O hardware.
In an industrial control cabinet, field devices may be located some distance from the controller and I/O station. Their wiring must be brought into the cabinet, terminated correctly, and routed to the appropriate I/O channels. An auxiliary terminal strip provides a practical connection point for this type of cabinet wiring arrangement.
The IC670TBM002 is particularly relevant when building, expanding, or servicing a Field Control I/O station. It can help organize field-side connections and make individual circuits easier to identify during commissioning and maintenance.
For engineers working on an existing control panel, the terminal strip should be treated as part of the complete wiring interface. A loose terminal, incorrect wire position, or damaged connection can create symptoms that initially look like an I/O module or communication problem.

The terminal strip should be selected according to the intended Field Control hardware arrangement and wiring requirements.
Working Principle
The practical connection path can be viewed as:
Field Device → Field Wiring → Terminal Strip → I/O Hardware → Field Control System
Field devices such as switches, sensors, actuators, relays, and other equipment are connected through cabinet wiring. The terminal strip provides a defined termination point, allowing the wiring to be arranged before reaching the corresponding I/O hardware.
This arrangement is particularly useful in cabinets with numerous field circuits. Instead of having individual wires routed directly through the cabinet without a structured termination point, the wiring can be grouped and identified at the terminal level.
During troubleshooting, this also gives technicians a convenient location to check continuity, inspect connections, and trace individual circuits.
Industrial Applications
The IC670TBM002 is applicable to control cabinets where Field Control I/O hardware requires organized field wiring.
| Application | Typical Use |
|---|---|
| Machine Automation | Field-device wiring termination |
| Material Handling | Sensor and actuator connections |
| Packaging Machinery | Organized I/O wiring |
| Process Equipment | Field instrument connections |
| Production Lines | Distributed control-panel wiring |
| Motor Control Systems | Auxiliary status and control circuits |
| Industrial Control Panels | Terminal-level wiring organization |
| Distributed I/O Systems | Field wiring interface |
Its practical use depends on the specific Field Control station and the wiring architecture of the installation.
Compatible System Components
The IC670TBM002 is normally used alongside other Field Control hardware and field-side connection components.
| Component | Function |
|---|---|
| IC670TBM002 | Provides auxiliary field wiring termination |
| Field Control I/O Module | Processes input or output signals |
| I/O Station | Provides the distributed I/O structure |
| Discrete Input Module | Receives ON/OFF field signals |
| Discrete Output Module | Sends discrete control commands |
| Analog I/O Modules | Handle continuous process signals |
| Field Sensors | Provide process or equipment measurements |
| Actuators | Receive control commands |
| Terminal Wiring | Connects field circuits to the I/O system |
| Controller | Executes the control logic |
The terminal strip is a supporting wiring component, so compatibility should be considered in the context of the complete I/O station and cabinet wiring arrangement.
Installation and Maintenance
The IC670TBM002 should be installed with attention to terminal identification, wire routing, and the corresponding I/O channels. Clear labeling is especially valuable when a cabinet contains a large number of similar circuits.
Recommended checks include:
- Confirm the complete IC670TBM002 part number.
- Verify the Field Control hardware arrangement.
- Confirm the intended terminal location.
- Check field-wire identification.
- Inspect terminal connections.
- Verify that conductors are properly secured.
- Check for loose or damaged wiring.
- Inspect adjacent I/O components.
- Verify the relationship between terminal positions and I/O channels.
- Check wiring continuity during maintenance.
- Review cabinet documentation after wiring changes.
- Perform appropriate signal checks after installation.
If an I/O channel appears to be inactive or incorrect, the terminal strip and associated wiring should be checked before assuming that the I/O module itself has failed.
Recommended Related Models
For the IC670TBM002, related components should be selected according to the Field Control I/O station and the actual wiring requirements.
| Model / Component | Type | Primary Function | Application |
|---|---|---|---|
| GE IC670TBM002 | Auxiliary Terminal Strip | Field wiring termination | Field Control systems |
| GE IC670MDL640 | Discrete Input Module | Discrete signal acquisition | Equipment status |
| GE IC670MDL740 | Discrete Output Module | Discrete control output | Actuators and control circuits |
| GE IC670MDL930 | Discrete Output Module | Discrete control output | Distributed automation |
| GE Field Control I/O Modules | I/O Module Family | Field signal processing | Industrial automation |
| GE Field Control I/O Station Components | System Hardware | Distributed I/O integration | Control cabinets |
When selecting a replacement terminal strip, the exact part number and intended Field Control hardware arrangement should be verified. Physical dimensions alone are not enough to establish compatibility.

Technical FAQs
What is the purpose of the IC670TBM002 in a Field Control installation?
The IC670TBM002 is used as an auxiliary terminal strip for organizing and terminating field wiring. It supports the physical connection arrangement around the Field Control I/O hardware rather than processing the I/O signal itself.
How can a faulty terminal connection affect an I/O system?
A loose, damaged, or incorrectly terminated wire can interrupt the signal path between a field device and the I/O module. This may appear as a failed input, missing output, or intermittent equipment operation even when the I/O module is functioning normally.
Why is terminal labeling important when servicing a Field Control cabinet?
A Field Control cabinet may contain many similar circuits. Clear terminal identification helps technicians trace each field device to its corresponding I/O channel and reduces the risk of reconnecting a wire to the wrong circuit after maintenance.
Should the terminal strip be replaced when an I/O channel stops working?
Not automatically. The field device, wiring, terminal connections, I/O module, and controller-side configuration should be checked systematically. A terminal-strip problem is only one possible cause of an I/O fault.
