ABSTRACT:
An aerial terminal has a housing divided into back and front compartments by a dividing wall which has a zig-zag formation from top to bottom. A top section of the dividing wall is set forward from a bottom section and a row of apertures is formed in each section. In a preformed arrangement the apertures are oblong and inclined towards each other in pairs. Terminals having shanks fitting in the apertures have transverse holes orientated by the apertures, to be also inclined towards each other in pairs. Shrouds surround the terminals and a channel in each shroud acts to guide a drop-wire conductor into the related terminal hole. The conductor is fastened by a screw in the front of the terminal. Conductors of a stub cable are attached to the rear portions of terminals extending into the back compartment, and the back compartment is filled with potting compound, which holds on a back cover. A front cover clips on to close the front compartment. A plurality of housings can be fastened together to provide an increased number of terminals.
