Abstract
This disclosure depicts an improved method for terminating an electrical resistor for a televisin CRT which could be used for arc suppression, voltage division or the like. The method comprises providing a cylindrical resistor rod and an electrically conductive coil spring whose unstressed inside diameter is slightly less than the outside diameter of the rod. The inside diameter of the spring is enlarged by imposing a torsional stress thereon. An end of the resistor rod is inserted into the opened spring and the spring is released to permit it to tightly constrict upon the rod and thereby make a sound electrical and mechanical engagement therewith. The spring is locked on the resistor rod by permanently joining together a number of the turns of said spring.
