An improved telephone line terminal block cover is disclosed. The particular block to which the invention has application is a horizontally mounted terminal block having upper and lower matched arrays of terminal clips projecting upwardly and downwardly from the upper and lower horizontal surfaces of the terminal block, respectively. The disclosure presents a flat, rigid, acid-solder resistant hinged terminal guard. The specific structure includes a hinged plexiglass or cellulose acetate door, overlying the upwardly extending terminal clips. The door is swingable upon the hinges upwardly away from the metal clips, to gain access thereto. The door shields the terminal ends from electrical shorting by accidentally dropped objects, and also guards against other terminal fouling debris, including wire clippings and/or solder drippings from soldering operations at higher level rows or banks of similar horizontally mounted terminal blocks; the guard also acts as a personnel protecting device, preventing accidental body contact with the terminals.
