2. Punch-down block - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punch-down_block

   Punch-down blocks are a very quick and easy way to connect wiring, as there is no stripping of insulation and no screws to loosen and tighten. Punch-down blocks are often used as patch panels , or as breakout boxes for PBX or other similar multi-line telephone systems with 50- pin RJ21 ( Amphenol ) connectors. [ 2 ]

3. Twist-on wire connector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twist-on_wire_connector

   When such a connector is twisted onto the stripped ends of wires, the wires are drawn into the connector's metal insert and squeezed together inside it. Electrical continuity is maintained both by the direct twisted wire-to-wire contact and by contact with the metal insert. Twist-on wire connectors are typically installed by hand.

4. 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 ...

5. Electrical connector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_connector

   Since stripping insulation from wires is time-consuming, many connectors intended for rapid assembly use insulation-displacement connectors which cut the insulation as the wire is inserted. [1] These generally take the form of a fork-shaped opening in the terminal, into which the insulated wire is pressed, which cut through the insulation to ...

6. Mineral-insulated copper-clad cable - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mineral-insulated_copper...

   Termination requires stripping back the copper cladding and attaching a compression gland fitting. Individual conductors are insulated with plastic sleeves. A sealing tape, insulating putty, or an epoxy resin is then poured into the compression gland fitting to provide a watertight seal. If a termination is faulty due to workmanship or damage ...

7. FASTON terminal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FASTON_terminal

   FASTON terminals or faston terminals are connectors that are widely used in electronic and electrical equipment. These terminals are manufactured by many companies, commonly using the terms "quick disconnect", "quick connect", "tab" terminals, "spade" terminals [ 1 ] or blade connectors ; without qualifiers, the first two could be mistaken for ...
