ABSTRACT:
In an electrical terminating device wherein a conductive element, such as a bared conductor or a terminal contact, is secured to a terminal member by clamping the conductive element between a clamping screw and the terminal member, a resiliently deflectable cantilevered tang is struck from the terminal member and engages the conductive element, tending to confine the conductive element against longitudinal pull-out and lateral squeeze-out from between the clamping screw and the terminal member. The tang may be twisted or otherwise deformed to better present sharp gripping edges to the conductive element.
