Abstract: A terminal block arrangement for a timer device or system; which enables suitable heat dissipation wherein the terminal block is handling currents of the order of at least 30 amps, such that heat dissipation is a problem because the dissipation is limited either by the PC board track or, if wire is used, by the heat conduction of the wire. The terminal design of the present invention is unique because the terminal block provides the combined advantages of access to the end user, is a source of heat sinking required by the relay, is a reliable integral connection between relay and output, and by changing the size of the terminal, can provided an almost unlimited use for AC and DC applications requiring high voltages and currents. The relay connections can be welded or soldered.
