An improved terminal clamp assembly adapted for removably securing and electrically connecting a pair of conductor wires. A plate element of the clamp assembly is preassembled to a fastener having a threaded shank and clamping head with the plate configured so as to tilt relative to the axis of the fastener permitting the interconnection of two conductors having different diameters. A plurality of ribs, including alternately disposed sets, are formed beneath the clamping surface of the plate with each set of ribs tapering in different directions to create a plurality of laterally directed forces on a single conductor wire in different and opposing directions.
