A terminal block comprises clip type terminals which snap fit into the block and project outwardly from opposite faces of the block. The terminals are disposed in an array consisting of a number of rows and columns. At opposite margins of the terminal block are fanning strips for receiving the wires that are joined to the terminals. The block has recesses for the wires and the recesses are progressively deeper as they extend from the center of the block toward the fanning strips, thereby avoiding a buildup of conductors at the terminals that are adjacent to the fanning strips. The fanning strips also have resilient fingers that retain the wires in the various slots of the fanning strip.
