Electrical spring terminal

摘要

The spring clamping element 9 is formed as a loop from strip material and is installed in a housing of insulating material that has an aperture 11 at one end into which the end of a cable is inserted. The aperture is accessed by deflecting the spring with a screwdriver . When released the cable is clamped against a conductor 7. A shaped insert of insulating material 15 is placed in the loop and this prevents any overload by limiting the deflection.
