Abstract

A junction box comprising a rigid insulating housing with spaced opposed faces having pairs of aligned terminal-receiving apertures, a stack of terminal boards sandwiched between the faces of the housing, each terminal board comprising a metal sheet laminated with an insulating sheet, the metal sheet being divided into areas defining discrete current paths and being perforated at locations in alignment with the terminal-receiving apertures where contact with the metal sheet is not required.
