A multiple piece terminal includes a first section which is stationary relative to the housing of the connector and rotatable sections which are rotatable relative to the first section. Each of the sections is comprised of a single thickness of metallic material wrapped into a substantially cylindrical configuration, where the rotatable sections are of a larger outer diameter than the first section such that the rotatable sections can engagingly overlie the first section. The first section is mounted to an insulative housing with a post section upstanding through the center of the first section. The post has at least one through opening which includes at least partially along its length, a frusto-conical section for wire section through the opening. The rotatable sections of the terminal has two wire receiving openings, each in communication with a wire-receiving slot around the circumference of the cylinder, with the two wire receiving openings being on opposed sides of the through opening on the post. Caps fit over the rotatable sections of the terminal, each cap has a shoulder which is engagable with a free end of a respective rotatable section of the terminal for rotation of the rotatable section of the terminal relative to the first section of the terminal. When wires are placed in through the caps and the caps are turned, the rotatable sections of the terminal are 14774 CA rotated and the wires are terminated in the wire receiving slots.
