ABSTRACT:
A terminal connector head has a housing and a cover. The cover is removably mounted on the housing. The housing has an inner surface that has holes formed therein. The holes receive threaded inserts into which terminal screws are threaded. The holes are formed in pairs to provide for terminal strips. That is, two terminal screws are threaded into the threaded inserts in each pair of holes with a connecting link extending therebetween. The holes are located in the inner surface of the housing such that one or more of the threaded inserts in the holes will match holes or slots in a terminal block. The terminal block can then be mounted in the housing by using the threaded inserts which match up with the holes or slots in the terminal block. Illustratively, the terminal block has slots on either side. Each slot matches up with a threaded insert in one of the holes formed in the inner surface of the housing.
