Abstract
An electrical terminal block for a printed circuit has upper and lower rows of terminals in a stepped configuration, the terminals in the upper row being laterally offset relative to those in the lower row by half the width of a terminal. The front edges of the upper row terminals rest on the terminals of a bottom row, and retaining plates are provided at the ends of the rows. The terminals are all of the same type. If only a single lower row is provided the rear of the upper row can be supported on a supporting wall. Alternatively a second lower row can be provided.
