Abstract
A modular terminal block with one or more built in surge protectors is disclosed. The terminal block contains all of the surge protection devices for a security or other type of system. The connectors of the terminal block also have indicia on the connector pairs of the terminal block that match the connectors of the terminal block with the connectors of the system to which the surge protector is to be connected. The identifying indicia on the connectors pairs provides for the easy identification of the proper interconnections between the terminal block and the system it is designed to protect.
