ABSTRACT:
A telephone station protector module suitable for exposure to weather includes an elongated lower hollow housing member has a longitudinal and a transverse axis. The top surface includes a pair of terminal assemblies with the front and rear surfaces parallel to the module's longitudinal axis and include an elongated through aperture and an open bottom. Each terminal assembly includes a pair of hollow rectangularly shaped upper housing members having a top surface with an aperture adapted to receive a threaded bolt. Two side surfaces parallel to the transverse axis are provided with a plurality of apertures suitable for receiving insulated wires therein. The other two parallel sides surfaces are provided with an outwardly extending protrusion for cooperating with the bottom member elongated aperture. The terminal assembly also includes a generally U-shaped conducting contact, which has a pair of arm portions and a base portion. Each arm portion is provided with at least one cutting slot in alignment with the apertures for receiving the insulated wires therein. A pair of conducting feedthroughs have internal threads on one end for receiving the bolt therein. The threaded end of the feedthrough is retained by the lower housing member aperture and extends into the hollow portion of the housing. Rotating the threaded bolt urges the top housing member into the lower housing member, wherein the insulated wires inserted into the side through apertures into the slots of the U-shaped contacts complete a conductive path therebetween.
