A clip-connected terminal conductor uses a terminal lug for tightening together with a screw the line cable and the conductor end. A channel is provided in the lug for inserting therein, and guided by lateral wall of the channel, a spring-like member having centrally a boss which engages the aperture of the conductor end. The spring-like member has opposite ledges for clipping with the front and the rear edge of the base of the lug and channel.
