The invention relates to a terminal strip (1) comprising a housing (2) and at least four insulation displacement contacts (K1-K8), the at least four insulation displacement contacts (K1-K8) being arranged in a series (3, 4). The housing (2) comprises housing walls (5) between which the insulation displacement contacts (K1-K8) are arranged. The insulation displacement contacts (K1-K8) are at a 45° angle in relation to the housing walls (5), and two separate insulation displacement contacts form a contact pair. The insulation displacement contacts (K1-K8) of a contact pair (K1, K2; K7, K8; K3, K6; K4, K5) are parallel in relation to each other, whereas adjacent insulation displacement contacts (K1-K8; K5, K6) of different contact pairs are mutually rotated by 90° about the longitudinal axis (L) of the insulation displacement contacts (K1-K8).
A terminal block, comprising a housing and at least four insulation displacement contacts, the at least four insulation displacement contacts being arranged in a row, the housing being formed with housing walls between which the insulation displacement contacts are arranged, the insulation displacement contacts being aligned at an angle of 45° with respect to the housing walls, and in each case two insulation displacement contacts forming a contact pair, wherein the insulation displacement contacts (K1-K8) of one contact pair (K1, K2;
