Abstract: A terminal block receiving non-stripped wire ends includes an insulating casing, a conductive part installed within the casing, and a displacement tool. The conductive part includes a cooperating slot defined by two cooperating blades forming an insulation-displacement contact connection of a non-stripped wire end. The cooperating blades are parallel to a connection axis of the connection part. The displacement tool displaces the non-stripped wire end in a direction of the connection axis from a disconnected position to a connected position. In the connected position, the two cooperating blades are in electrical contact with a central conducting core of the non-stripped wire end. The displacement tool is attached to the insulating casing by a connection element of the terminal block.
