ABSTRACT:
A junction block for tap-in connection to a continuous two-conductor line comprises a removably mutually engageable base and a cover, defining axially aligned wire entrance and exit apertures, and a passage admitting a plug. Conductor positioners each define a conductor path between the apertures; insulation displacement means are positioned for cooperative interaction with the positioners. Each displacement means is electrically connected with a contact spring adjacent the passage.
A positioner and its cooperating displacement means together define a conductor engagement position generally on a level with the wire apertures, so that tension on the wire external to the block does not tend to pull the conductors out of the displacement means. The block has cooperating alignment means mutually engageable during assembly positively to align the positioners with the displacement means before the conductor insulation is engaged, and to prevent misassembly of the block components.
