Abstract

A terminal module is configured to fit inside an internal power source receptacle in a housing of a process field device, and comprises a wired power source connection, power conditioning electronics, and a field device connection. The wired power source connection is configured to receive power from an external source. The power conditioning electronics are capable of conditioning power from the wired power source connection for reception by the industrial field device. The field device connection is configured to provide power conditioned by the power conditioning electronics to the process field device via a terminal configured to receive and mate with the internal power source.
