ABSTRACT:
A terminal clip (2) for holding a conductor (30) against and in electrical contact with a terminal post (32) has a conductor receiving section (4) and mounting sections (6,8). The conductor receiving section (4) has a channel (24) provided therein. The channel (24) has a varied cross-sectional configuration to cooperate and maintain the conductor (30) in position. The mounting sections (6,8) have arcuate, resilient sections (14), which deform within their elastic limits as the clip (2) is inserted onto the post (32). This allows the clip (2) to compensate for dimensional variations, and to generate the normal force required to maintain the conductors (30) and the post (32) in electrical engagement.
