Abstract

The junction block has four resilient fixing legs disposed in pairs about both of two fixing orientations of the block. Each leg has a lock notch facing the adjacent fixing legs and designed to catch under a support strip edge when the block is in position. The legs cam resiliently apart during fixing and the lock notches snap into position when the block is pushed home far enough.
