<p>A stamped and formed terminal for use in establishing an insulation displacement termination to wires 2 extending in either of two orthogonal directions is disclosed. The stamped and formed terminal has a box-like conductor terminating portion in which wires can be inserted into slots in opposed plates 41, 42, 43, and 44 on two of the four sides. The other plates can then be deformed about weakened sections 71, 72, to overlap a conductor inserted into slots on the adjacent sides to provide strain relief to prevent removal of the wire from the slots. Interconnection to other terminals can then be made to a termination portion 46 which will have the same orientation relative to an insulative body 10 in which the terminal is mounted regardless of the direction of the conductors.</p> |
