Abstract
Terminal receptacle which is receptive to a conductor at each end thereof comprises a channel-shaped member having a web and sidewalls. Openings are provided in the web and first springs extend obliquely across these openings from the web towards one of the sidewalls. Second springs extend from the upper edge of one of the sidewalls obliquely towards the other sidewall and towards the web. Conductors are connected to the receptacle by inserting the wires between the free ends of the springs and the adjacent sidewalls. Overstress-prevention ears extend inward from one of the sidewalls between the springs to prevent overstressing of the springs.
