Abstract
There is disclosed a terminal connecting block and bracket assembly. The terminal connecting block contains a plurality of flat elongate electrically conductive elements. Each element in the block comprises a flat base portion and at least one pair of opposing insulating shearing contact fingers projecting from the base portion and integral therewith. The opposing contact fingers project upwardly from the terminal block. Each electrically conductive element also contains a tang projecting from the opposite end of the base portion. A plurality of the electrically conductive elements are in electrical contact with a unitary electrical connector, e.g., a male or female connector, by means of electrically conductive wires. One end of each wire is attached to one of said tangs and the other end of each wire is attached to the unitary electrical connector. The terminal connecting block is used in combination with a bracket for mounting the block on a surface. The bracket comprises two spaced apart elongate side portions and an elongate rear portion coextensive with the side portions. Each of the side portions is secured to opposite edges of the rear portion and is perpendicular thereto. …
