Electrode clip for attachment to a TENS electrode or other medical electrode including a slide actuator within a grooved channel for moving longitudinally and rotationally positioning an upper contact body including an integral contact over and about an interceded electrode contact assembly, and securing the electrode contact assembly over a lower contact integral to an electrode clip main body. The sliding actuator includes catches and latches in the sliding actuator and related structure for positioning to actuate and to secure the electrode clip upper contact body in a secured or unsecured position over the main body. Spring contacts in the lower main body contact assembly provide electrical continuity between upper and lower contacts for ensuring electrical contact between the upper and lower contacts and an inserted electrode.
