Below is a photo I've just this minute taken of my homemade one in use with a couple of test leads supplying mains to the rear connectors of a Rigonda radiogram that's in for repair. It's easier to do it this way as the proper mains connector comes off with the back panel on these. I could use bare ended wires with croc clips on the other to fit in the proper Safebloc, but I already have test leads with 4mm plugs on one end and croc clips on the other for use with Avometers etc., so I always use these and the terminal block for jobs like this. I do often stick a bit of cardboard between and over them to prevent shorts from them being pulled together while I'm working.
