Terminal blocks, also called terminal boards, junction blocks, and blocks of terminals, are electrical connectors consisting of one or more rows of terminals. They are used for making connections between individual wires which carry data signals and power supply to various electrical and electronic components. They are commonly used in industrial control systems, computers, telecommunications, and instrumentation.

Terminal blocks are available in a variety of sizes, shapes, and styles. They may be designed for single or multiple pole connections, with conductive pins, screw type connections, soldered joints, snap-in terminals, or spring loaded contacts. They can also be used to terminate and splice cable assemblies, as well as for connecting single wires to multiple poles. Termination styles include screw, crimp, or solderable.

The headers, plugs and sockets that make up a terminal block may be specific to a particular application. For instance, DIN connectors are used in audio applications, while hermaphroditic connectors are used in power systems. All of these components are generally constructed of insulative plastics and metal alloys to protect users and sensitive components from electrical shock. Depending on the application, terminals may also be insulated with glass, Teflon, or rubber.

The working principle of a terminal block is fairly simple: when a terminal pin is connected with a wire, either by soldering, crimping, or screwing, the electrical current is transferred to the wire. This connection is then cleaned and sealed to prevent moisture or other contaminants from leaking in or out. In order to accommodate different wire sizes or types, most terminal blocks provide different terminal contact points. For instance, there may be a range of contact points for different wire gauges, different insulation materials, and different conductor metals. Typically, wire connections should be made with stranded wire, as solid wire is more prone to breaking or loosening in vibration and other dynamic situations.

Terminal blocks are ideal for use in applications where frequent connections and disconnections are required, such as in portable or temporary equipment. They provide a secure method of connecting or terminating multiple cables or wires into one junction. In some cases, such as audio applications, they can even be used with multi-core cables.
