A telecommunications overvoltage protection magazine ( ) permits in the mounting position direct mounting in a telecommunications rack-mounting system behind a junction zone ( ) for cable conductors and electrical connection to the junction zone ( ), the surge arresters being insertable in a mounting position from below, from above or partly from above and partly from below, more particularly alternatingly from above and below.

A terminal block assembly is provided containing a bus bar having a knife edge arranged to penetrate the insulation of an insulated conductor that is carried by a support member, whereby during the connection of the support member with the terminal block, the insulation is penetrated by the knife edge to electrically connect the conductor with the bus bar. In order to facilitate the connection of the support member to the terminal block, the support member and the terminal block are provided with openings that cooperate to define a long-arm pivotal leverage arrangement that provides an assembling tool with a mechanical advantage for assisting in the penetration of the insulation by the knife edge.

An insulation displacement contact (10) comprises a contact spring (12) with two resilient contact shanks (20) that limit a contact slot (30), and a U-shaped force spring (14) formed as a separate component from the contact spring (12). The shanks (28) of the force spring (14) run largely perpendicular to regions of the contact shanks (20) and encompass same.
