Abstract

A modular telecommunications terminal block system includes one or more terminal blocks (10) which may be repeatedly installed and removed from a mounting rail (24). Each terminal block (10) employs a housing (12) having a telephone exchange wire carrier and a service wire carrier within the housing. An exchange wire to be connected to the terminal block (10) is inserted through an opening (36) in the housing and into the exchange wire carrier (20) which is movable between an open position and a closed position. By manually pressing the exchange wire carrier (20) into the closed position, or by installing the terminal block (10) onto the mounting rail (24), the exchange wire is terminated to an exchange wire contact element (170) within the terminal block (10). A service wire is separately terminated within the terminal block and engages a service wire contact element (66,68). Insertion of a linking module (16) into an access jack (120) provides connection between the exchange wire contact element (170) and the service wire contact element (66,68). The linking module (16) may simply connect the service side to the exchange side or additionally provide a ground connection for protecting against voltage variances on the conductive path. In addition, the linking module (16) may provide access to the exchangeside or the service side such that either side may be tested without disconnecting the related wires. Voids in the housing are filled with an electrically insulating medium which ensures improved protection from environmental factors such as moisture, chemicals and other contaminants after repeated connection and disconnection of the exchange wires and service wires, and repeated installation and removal of the terminal block from a mounting rail.
