ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a captive nut terminal for an electronic module power connector (4,4'), of the type comprising a lug (4b) projecting above the resin embedding the circuits of the module, bent at right angles above the upper face of the module and having a hole (6) for the subsequent passage of a screw for connection to an external terminal and a nut disposed under said lug in line with the hole, said terminal being characterized in that the nut is held captive in a housing (8) of a size and shape allowing the nut a slight multidirectional play but preventing rotation thereof, said housing being formed in the upper face of a piece (7,7') fixed to and positioned on the connector (4,4'), under the lug (4b), and having, on at least one of its sides, a hollow (13) for anchoring said piece in said resin.
