Abstract
An electrical distribution block has an electrically insulative and temperature resistant housing and a conductive rod having multiple electrical connection locations spaced along its length. The conductive rod is inserted into the housing, and the housing allows access to the electrical connection locations on the conductive rod. An electrical connection may be established by inserting a wire through the housing and into the electrical connection location. A fastener for maintaining the electrical connection is accessible through the housing to press the wire against the conductive rod.
