terminal block
Electrical connection point
A terminal block is a connector that joins electrical wires without splicing or soldering them together.
Wires insert into slots and are secured by screws or spring clamps, allowing easy connection and disconnection.
Terminal blocks appear in industrial control panels, building wiring, and anywhere multiple conductors need organized, accessible junction points: The electrician wired each circuit to the terminal block.
