ABSTRACT:
A press-connecting terminal is formed from an electrically-conductive metal sheet, and includes a wire connection portion at one end portion thereof, and an electrical connection portion at the other end portion thereof for connection to a mating terminal. The wire connection portion includes a press-connecting blade defining a slot into which a covered wire is adapted to be press-fitted, and an insulation barrel for fixing the covered wire in the slot. An opening for receiving part of the covered wire is formed in that region of a bottom plate portion of the wire connection portion where the covered wire is pressed by the insulation barrel. With this construction, the ability of retaining the wire is enhanced, and the material cost for the metal sheet can be reduced. There is also disclosed a connector to which this press-connecting terminal is attached.
