Abstract

A terminal includes a spine extending along a longitudinal axis from a first end to a second end and extending along a lateral axis, which is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, from a first edge to a second edge. An attachment portion at the first end provides fixation to an electrical conductor. A contact portion extends from the second end and cantilevers over the spine such that the contact portion is spaced apart from the spine in a direction along a vertical axis which is perpendicular to both the longitudinal axis and the lateral axis. A locking tab extends from the first edge and has a locking tab attachment end which is fixed to first edge and which extends toward, and is aligned with, the contact portion in a direction parallel to the vertical axis. The locking tab also has a free end which flares outward beyond contact portion.
