ABSTRACT:
A split-barrel connector terminal is presented wherein a wire connected to the terminal is released as a new wire is being connected. This feature is provided by aperture (13) located a predetermined distance from the wire receiving end of slot (12). When insertion tool (51) forces wire (61) into slot (12), wire (52) is pushed into aperture (13) terminating its mechanical and electrical connection to terminal (11). Terminal (11) has locking shoulders (17) and (18) which permit insertion of the terminal into insulation sheet (32) but prevent removal of the terminal. Sheet (32) and sheet (33) are molded pieces which fit together to provide insulating housing structures for terminal (11). Slot (43) in the housing secures the wires connected to terminals (11) and provides a strain relief function. This arrangement reduces the number of parts making an otherwise complex assembly easily and economically manufacturable.
