ABSTRACT:
A connector is securely mounted on the end of a low voltage track. The connector is electrically connected to a pair of spaced conductive wires in the tracks. The conductive wires are separated in an insulator body. The insulator body has a pair of opposed inwardly extending edges. The terminal includes a base having a pair of opposed resilient side walls. Each of the side walls defines in part a respective longitudinal receptacle groove. Each receptacle groove is parallel to the other groove. A cantilever tongue is formed integral with the side walls and is substantially parallel to the grooves. The tongue is positioned between the opposed edges of the insulator body. The tongue has opposed portions positioned under the inwardly extending edges of the insulator body. A connector belt is positioned in each of the receptacle grooves. Each connector belt receives a wire from the low voltage track. A fastener is mounted in each of the connector belts for securing a respective wire in its connector belt and provides an electrically conductive connection between the belt and the wire.
