Quick install pluggable terminal block

1. A system, comprising:

a terminal block including

a body,

a plug configured to receive a pin,

a busbar being configured to provide an electrical connection between a wire and the pin,

a spring including a base, an arm facing the base, and a fulcrum where the spring bends to connect the base to the arm, the arm defining an aperture with an edge configured to clamp the wire against the busbar,

wherein the busbar has a guide that extends through the aperture in the arm of the spring;

the spring having an open position where the edge of the aperture is spaced away from the busbar to form a gap to receive the wire,

the spring having a closed position wherein the edge of the aperture clamps the wire against the guide of the busbar to retain the wire,

wherein the spring is biased to the closed position, and

a lever pivotally coupled to the body, wherein the lever is configured to actuate the spring, the lever being configured to pivot to press the arm towards the base by bending the spring at tire fulcrum to move the spring to the open position to receive the wire, the lever being configured to release the arm to allow spring to spring back to the closed position; and

wherein the terminal block is configured to facilitate toolless connection of the wire to the terminal block.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the terminal block is configured to couple to another terminal block using a dovetail joint.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the terminal block is in a form of a Euroblock.

4. A terminal block, comprising:

a body;

a plug configured to receive a pin;

a busbar being configured to provide an electrical connection between a wire and the pin, wherein the busbar includes a socket configured to receive a pin, wherein the socket includes a panel;

two or more leaves extending from opposite sides of the panel, wherein the leaves define a pin opening between each other;

wherein the socket is configured to retain a pin in the pin opening to maintain an electrical connection;

wherein the leaves curve toward each other to form arches;

wherein the arches are configured to compress a pin between each other;

a spring configured to selectively couple a wire to the busbar; and

a lever pivotally coupled to the body, wherein the lever is configured to actuate the spring.

5. The terminal block of claim 4 , further comprising:

the spring including a base, an arm facing the base, and a fulcrum where the spring bends to connect the base to the arm;

the arm defining an aperture with an edge configured to clamp the wire against the busbar;

wherein the busbar has a guide that extends through the aperture in the arm of the spring;

the spring having an open position where the edge of the aperture is spaced away from the busbar to form a gap to receive the wire;

the spring having a closed position wherein the edge of the aperture clamps the wire against the guide of the busbar to retain the wire;

wherein the spring is biased to the closed position;

the lever being configured to pivot to press the arm towards the base by bending the spring at the fulcrum to move the spring to the open position to receive the wire; and

the lever being configured to release the arm to allow spring to spring back to the closed position.

6. The terminal block of claim 4 , wherein:

the body defines a channel;

the lever is configured to rest within the channel to prevent accidental rotation of the lever;

the lever rests within the channel when the spring is in a closed position; and

the lever is configured to extend out of the channel when pivoted to compress the spring to the open position.

7. The terminal block of claim 4 , wherein the socket is configured to receive a pin with a width between 0.5 and 2.5 millimeters.

8. The terminal block of claim 4 , further comprising:

a clip configured to couple to an outlet when the plug is positioned in the outlet.

9. The terminal block of claim 4 , wherein:

the arches curve away from each other to form lips;

the lips define a mouth that is configured to receive a pin; and

the arches are configured to spread apart when a pin moves into the mouth toward the pin opening.

10. The terminal block of claim 9 , wherein each leaf extends in a parallel direction to the other leaf.

11. The terminal block of claim 4 , wherein:

the busbar includes a strut positioned near the spring;

the busbar includes an intermediate portion;

the strut is configured to contact a wire;

the intermediate portion connecting the strut and the socket; and

wherein the intermediate portion is arched.

12. The terminal block of claim 11 , wherein the busbar is formed by cutting and bending a single piece of material.

13. The terminal block of claim 4 , wherein:

the terminal block includes more than one busbar; and

the busbar is configured to connect conductors on a separate conduction path.

14. The terminal block of claim 13 , further comprising:

at least one separator being positioned between two busbars; and

wherein the separator is configured to electrically isolate two busbars.

15. The terminal block of claim 14 , wherein the separator is integrally formed with the body.

16. The terminal block of claim 4 , wherein the terminal block is configured to couple to another terminal block using a dovetail joint.

17. The terminal block of claim 16 , wherein:

the terminal block includes a stud;

the terminal block defines a divot; and

the divot and stud are configured to impede terminal blocks from sliding relative to one another.

18. The system of claim 1 , further comprising:

an outlet configured to receive the terminal block in a pluggable manner.

19. The system of claim 18 , wherein the terminal block is configured to facilitate toolless connection of the pin and the outlet.

20. The system of claim 1 , wherein:

the terminal block includes more than one busbar; and

each busbar is configured to connect conductors on a separate conduction path.

21. The system of claim 20 , further comprising:

at least one separator positioned in the body and plug;

each separator being positioned between two busbars; and
