Reply to "Electical connection blocks ?"

Do NOT re-use that connection block! The screws grind directly into the wire strands, breaking many of them. This creates resistance, and heat, and a fire hazard. I've seen a number of the blocks half melted, along with the wire insulation of the attached wires, due to heat from resistance. Mine was this way.

Get a new terminal strip from Pantera Electronics.

This terminal strip/block has actual metal pads that clamp the wire when the screws are tightened so you don't break the wire strands. It makes for a much more secure connection - physically and electrically!
