The width of the backing plate 18) is slightly greater than the width of the terminal block (12) so that opposite side portions (A) of the plate (18) extend beyond the block. A cover (28) adapted to fit over the backing plate (18) and block (12) has a pair of inwardly extending ears (26) that snap fit around the extending portions of the backing plate (18). With the backing plate (18) secured to the transformer terminals (14) by nuts (24), the cover (28) is retained to the terminal block (12) by a seal wire (34) extending through the cover (28) and behind the plate (18).
