Abstract
A barrel-shaped terminal has two spiralled walls forming a cylinder of double thickness material. The terminal has two wire receiving openings, each in communication with a wire-receiving slot around the circumference of the cylinder. A cap fits over the terminal and has a central opening aligned with both wire-receiving openings. When a wire is placed in through the cap and the cap turned, the wire is terminated in a wire-receiving slot.
