Abstract

To form lead or lead alloy terminals on cables comprising an insulative sheath and an aluminum core, the appropriate length of the core is bared and a metal part is fixed to the bared core. The terminal is then cast over this metal part. The metal part is compatible externally with the lead or the lead alloy forming the terminal and is compatible internally with the aluminum core. No high-resistivity substance is formed between any component layers of the resulting assembly.
