Abstract
Slotted plate terminal comprises two wire-receiving portions, each having an inner plate-like member with a wire contacting slot therein and an outer plate-like member with a strain relief slot therein. Slots extend inwardly from bights which connect each inner plate-like member to an adjacent outer plate-like member at the wire receiving end. Inner plate-like members are connected by a web opposite the wire receiving end. Outer plate-like members have extensions which extend toward each other then laterally of the web to form a mounting portion. The terminal may be mass produced in strip form. Means for mounting and wire insertion are disclosed.
