Abstract
A compact protective electrical device for use with electrical wiring terminal blocks having a plurality of adjacently positioned elongated terminal means. The device includes a two-piece dielectric body composed of substantially identical sections which is designed to accept an electrical component associated with spaced contacts adapted to accept a variety of predetermined spacings of the terminals through end ports in the body. The device can serve as a surge protector in telephonic circuits dependent upon the type of electrical component utilized and is readily installed by finger pressure while maintaining a low profile to prevent accidental dislodgment.
