ABSTRACT:
A terminal connector to which an electrical wire having a conductor and an insulating cover surrounding the conductor is to be connected is disclosed. The terminal connector has a terminal body having an electrical connecting section to which a partner terminal is to be electrically connected and an electrical wire connecting section to which the electrical wire is to be connected, and a connecting member, which is separate from the terminal body, adapted to be mounted to the wire connecting section to establish electrical connection between the conductor of the electrical wire and the terminal body when the connecting member is mounted to the wire connecting section. The wire connecting section includes a base plate having opposite edges along the elongated direction of the terminal body and side walls integrally formed on the respective edge of the base plate. The side wall portions are opposite with each other in such a manner that the electrical wire will be received therebetween when the electrical wire is connected to the wire connecting section and that the connection member is fitted therebetween when the connecting member is mounted to the wire connecting section. The wire connecting section further includes first portion provided between the side walls for supporting the electrical wire thereon when the electrical wire is connected, and second portion for supporting the electrical wire thereon, the second portion being provided on the front or rear side of the first supporting portion with spaces defined between the first portion and each of the second portions into which the connecting member is adapted to be inserted.
