Abstract
A switch cartridge wedgingly retains an electrical terminal structure having a terminal housing with a hollow interior which receives a threaded fastener and a terminal. The threaded fastener carries a pressure plate which is restrained against rotation and translated toward the terminal upon tightening of the fastener within the terminal housing. A wire is inserted into the terminal housing and firmly held between the pressure plate and the terminal by tightening the fastener thereby making a direct wire to terminal contact.
