ELECTRICAL TERMINAL ASSEMBLY

摘要

An electrical assembly includes a base having a body including a first end and a second end. First and second opposed base beams extend from the first end of the body in a first direction. The assembly further includes a spring clamp having a clamp base and first and second opposed spring beams extending from the clamp base in the first direction and disposed over the first and second base beams biasing the first and second base beams towards one another. The spring clamp is assembled onto the base by moving the spring clamp along the first direction onto the base. A locking feature is integrally formed in the base and the spring clamp preventing the removal of the spring clamp from the base along a second direction opposite the first direction. The locking feature also prevents movement of the spring clamp relative to the base in a lateral direction normal to the first direction.
