2. IDC (electrical connector) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IDC_(electrical_connector)

   An insulation-displacement contact (IDC), also known as insulation-piercing contact (IPC), is an electrical connector designed to be connected to the conductor(s) of an insulated cable by a connection process which forces a selectively sharpened blade or blades through the insulation, bypassing the need to strip the conductors of insulation ...

3. FASTON terminal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FASTON_terminal

   The name "tab" terminals is a description of the shape of the male terminal. Six series are covered in one of TE's catalogs (which omits the 0.375 in/9.5 mm, but mentions it elsewhere), named after their blade width in mils. [2] Insulated versions of the terminals are color-coded to indicate what wire gauges they may be used with. The terminal ...

   Top: wire terminating in an insulated ferrule Center: Several ferrules with colored insulation, and two uninsulated ferrules Insulated, and uninsulated ferrules. An electric wire ferrule (sometimes electric end terminal) is a metal tube crimped over stranded wire to secure the strands within a screw terminal. Electrical insulation may be ...

5. 110 block - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/110_block

   A 110 punch block. A 110 block is a type of punch-down block used to terminate runs of on-premises wiring in a structured cabling system. The designation 110 is also used to describe a type of insulation displacement contact (IDC) connector used to terminate twisted pair cables, [1] which uses a punch-down tool similar to the type used for the older 66 block.

6. Electrical connector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_connector

   A blade connector is a type of single wire, plug-and-socket connection device using a flat conductive blade (plug) that is inserted into a receptacle. Wires are typically attached to male or female blade connector terminals by either crimping or soldering. Insulated and uninsulated varieties are available.

7. Punch-down block - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punch-down_block

   For example, pushing a screwdriver down the middle of the block is a bad practice as it forces the two blades of the terminal post apart, leading to bad contacts. It is also possible to punch down multiple wires on top of each other in a single post of a punch-down block, but this practice is discouraged because of reliability concerns.
