Connection terminal for electric wires, and a connection component for such a terminal

摘要

A terminal includes a metal component held in a housing in the form of at least one connection unit having the general plan appearance of a hollow, convex hexagon split on a longitudinal plane about which it is symmetrical for the purpose of connecting a single electric wire via two parallel stripping and retaining slits. Each unit includes two support sides which project in parallel from a fixed base and each of which carries two other sides of the hexagon shaped unit. Each slit is formed between two sides that are symmetrical. The two support sides press against different mutually parallel walls of the housing via respective symmetrically disposed projections.
