Abstract
An electric terminal, especially for a circuit board, e.g. of the breadboarding type for use in experimental circuit design, is formed with an annular groove with inner and outer walls and an annular spring element braced against one of these walls and engageable with a conductor inserted into the groove to mechanically retain the same and, at the same time, form an electrical connection therewith and with other conductors inserted into the groove. Preferably an array of such terminals is provided in respective recesses of an electrically insulating board.
