Abstract
A DIN rail terminal block essentially includes a plastic main body, a resilient plate, and a terminal. The resilient plate and the terminal are coupled together by multiple fastening structures and are simultaneously secured in position to the plastic main body, wherein the multiple fastening structures prevent the resilient plate and the terminal from shifting leftward, rightward, upward, or downward with respect to each other. With the terminal configured for ground connection, and the resilient plate configured for pressing tightly against a DIN rail, the terminal block is stably positioned, provides good electrical connection, and allows easy operation.
