A terminal comprises a terminal body including: at least one cramping blade formed by bending a portion of the terminal body, the cramping blade having a slot formed therethrough so as to allow an electrical insulative cable to be press-fitted into the slot, the cramping blade being connected to side plates of the terminal body; a guide member formed on the side plates of the terminal body: a holding member defined in an upper edge portion of the side plate; and a cramping member for inserting the electrical insulative cable into the slot by thrusting the electrical insulative cable which is brought into contact with the cramping member in area.
