Snap action wiring blocks make it easy to connect and split wires without soldering, crimping, or tools. This 3-to-9 block has three colour-coded inputs (green, yellow, red), each fanning out to three matching outputs — perfect for basic power or data distribution.
Each lever-action terminal accepts stranded or solid-core wire from 12 AWG to 24 AWG. Simply snap the lever open, insert the wire, and close — the internal metal block grips the wire securely. Fully reusable and easy to reconfigure.
Key Features

Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- AWG
- American Wire Gauge is a numbering system for wire thickness, where a lower number means a thicker wire. The AWG rating matters because thicker wire can usually carry more current with less voltage drop and heating.
- LED
- A light-emitting diode is a small electronic component that lights up when current flows through it in the correct direction. In this kit, LEDs create the flashing effect, so polarity and correct soldering matter for the project to work.
