Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A terminal block for an apparatus includes at least one terminal conductor having a first end that extends to a second end. The first end includes a first connection portion and the second end includes a second connection portion. A non-electrically conductive member covers the at least one terminal conductor. The non-electrically conductive member includes a body having a first end section arranged at the first end extending through an intermediate section to a second end section arranged at the second end. The first end section includes a first opening exposing the first connection portion, and the second end portion includes a second opening exposing the second connection portion. The body further includes a conductor routing system having at least one conductor routing member configured and disposed to restrain and guide a conductor member across the at least one terminal conductor.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method, comprising: securing a terminal block to a housing with the terminal block extending in a first direction between an electrical connection portion of the housing and one or more terminal leads of a stator of an electric motor, wherein the terminal block includes one or more terminal conductors and a non-electrically conductive member covering the terminal conductors, wherein each of the one or more terminal conductors include a first end with a fir…
