Default Terminal/Connector block

Phoenix makes them like that, where you insert a small screwdriver to
release the catch lever, insert wire and you're done. Used all the time
for PLC / industrial panel wiring, in the DIN rail style terminal blocks
and such.

Should be able to find it on their website (or TE's or anyone else's?),
not necessarily a searchable property on Digikey but give that a try too.

I've seen the kind with the integral locking lever (not an
insert-blade-to-release kind), for wire-to-wire jumpers, don't know if
they make those for terminal blocks too. I never liked them, but to each
his own.

Phoenix "push-in" is "close" .. scratch that release tab.
That integral locking lever scheme sounds exactly like what i am
looking for; any more info on that?
