Abstract

A retrofit arrangement is used to attach leads to deteriorated compressor terminals and the like. A secure holding force between the leads and the terminals is obtained with a wedging force. A screw arranged at an angle to the terminal can directly provide the wedging force or, alternatively, indirectly through one or more wedge-shaped bodies.
