Abstract

An electrical interconnector, e.g. a male pin plug, comprises electrical connector members and associated terminals which are formed from sheet metal. The terminals include at least one (1) tooth adapted to pierce the insulation to make contact with the conductors of a multi-strand cable when the cable is forced into a groove which is sized and shaped to function as a trap which captures and guides the cable.
