Abstract
An electrical terminal for coupling to a conductive structure includes a body having a wire receiving portion for receiving a conductor. A cup portion is electrically coupled with the wire receiving portion and a boss portion extends from the cup portion. An overmold structure of insulation material is formed on the cup portion and covers the cup portion sides. An aperture is formed in the body and extends through the cup portion and the boss portion for receiving a post of the conductive structure for securing the terminal to the conductive structure. A fastener is configured for engaging a post and securing the boss portion against the conductive structure. The boss portion is configured to surround the aperture for providing an electrically conductive surface free from insulation material for interfacing with the conductive structure. The fastener and post are contained in the cup portion and an insulative cap is configured for engaging the overmold structure and sealing the cup structure around the fastener and post of a conductive structure.
