Abstract
Briefly, and in accordance with the foregoing, the present invention envisions a novel terminal block assembly. The terminal block assembly of the present invention contains a dielectric material to provide environmental protection of a connector and a conductor when coupled to the connector. A dielectric protection system protects the dielectric material from detrimental environmental effects. Additionally, the terminal block assembly is configured to maintain the dielectric material in close contact with the connector without applying compressive forces thereto.
