Abstract
A connector guard is provided for a telephone line overvoltage protection device of the type having a plurality of terminals for electrical and mechanical connection with a telephone connector block. The connector guard comprises a housing including a plurality of walls extending in an axial direction between a first end and a second end. The housing is formed of electrically insulative material. The housing walls define a plurality of terminal receiving channels that extend between the first and second ends of the housing. The terminals are slideably inserted into the channels from the first end and are retained in snap-fit engagement with the housing. The housing walls electrically insulate adjacent ones of the terminals. The connector guard channels are dimensioned to provide contact pressure on the terminals to maintain effective electrical connections. The connector guard is dimensioned to facilitate electrical testing access to the terminals.
