ABSTRACT:
An electrical terminal includes an insulation displacement slot formed by two upstanding beams having a slot there between profiled to receive a wire. At an upper portion of the terminal, a wire receiving opening is formed which is profiled to receive an insulated wire, the opening being in transition with, insulation severing surfaces. To increase the reaction forces on the beams, a back-up spring is added to the spring beams, interconnected to the spring beams alongside the wire contact surfaces.
