ABSTRACT:
A press-clamping terminal of the invention is press-fastened at its conductor-clamping portion on an outer periphery of a conductor part of a wire so as to be electrically connected to the conductor part. A plating layer is formed at least on an inner surface of the conductor-clamping portion for contact with the conductor part, the plating layer being harder than a passivation layer formed on a surface of the conductor part, and being excellent in electrical conductivity. With this construction, the hard plating layer fractures the passivation layer upon press-fastening of the conductor-clamping portion on the conductor part of the wire, thereby providing the good press-clamping condition in which any passivation layer, increasing the contact resistance, is not interposed between the press-clamping terminal and the conductor part.
