Abstract
A terminal block, terminal board and terminal board assembly for terminating and testing railroad wires. The terminal block comprises a plurality of through-posts, allowing wiring and other components to be attached on posts on first and/or second sides of the terminal block. A surge protection component, control test link, and first wiring may be pre-installed on one side of the terminal block and terminal board, providing for quick installation prior to installing the terminal board assembly in the field. The through-posts also simplify the mounting of the terminal block to the terminal board, and the grounding for the terminal board.
