Abstract
A terminal block assembly includes a plurality of insulationpiercing type terminals which are interconnected with the contacts of one or more electrical connectors by flat flexible circuits. The terminal block includes upstanding sidewalls having recesses therein, which together with a removable cover, form exit openings for the flat flexible circuits and maintain the flat flexible circuits out of an interference relationship with the cover. An electrical connector is mounted on the terminal block adjacent each opening and includes contacts connected to the individual circuits.
