A terminal block includes a base, a support provided on the support, and a first terminal pair, a second terminal pair and a third terminal pair each supported by the support. A coupling line of the first electric wire is arranged along a first straight line, and a coupling line of the second electric wire is arranged along a second straight line. The base includes a support protrusion that extends to a coupling line of the third electric wire through between the coupling line of the first electric wire and the coupling line of the second electric wire and supports the coupling line of the third electric wire.

Terminal block

A DIN rail installing portion structure of an electrical appliance and a socket are provided. A back cover of a socket includes: a fitting groove, which is fitted to a DIN rail; and a claw portion, which is formed on a first side surface portion of both side surface portions of the fitting groove. A first edge portion of the DIN rail is clamped by the claw portion to hold the socketon the DIN rail. The claw portion elastically presses a first edge portion of the DIN rail in a thickness direction. On the first edge portion side of the DIN rail, there is no claw of which a width of clamping the first edge portion in the thickness direction does not change.

DIN rail installing portion structure of electrical appliance and socket

A terminal block includes a housing that has an opening through which a wire is to be inserted, a terminal configured to be connected to the wire that is inserted through the opening, and a plate spring member configured to fix the wire by pressing the wire against the terminal. The plate spring member has a pressing portion configured to press the wire against the terminal, and a plastic deformation preventing portion configured to prevent the pressing portion from bending in a direction away from the terminal by more than a predetermined amount.
