Abstract

A wire-connection terminal is formed with a mounting base portion having a bottom edge that is shaped to align with a top surface of a wire board. The mounting base portion forms a shoulder that protrudes a certain distance so that the terminal can be restrained by an outside part that confronts the shoulder when the terminal is mounted on the wire board. A wire-connection portion of the terminal projects above the mounting base portion, and a wire board mounting part or tail projects below the mounting base portion. The mounting part has a needle eye configuration for retaining the terminal by friction in a corresponding opening in the wire board on which the terminal is to be mounted.
