Abstract
A retrofit arrangement using a non-conductive adaptor body is used to attach leads or lead spade terminations to deteriorated compressor terminals. A secure holding force between the leads or spades attached to the leads and the deteriorated terminals is obtained with a wedging force. A screw is arranged at an angle to the terminal to directly provide the wedging force. The screw can also be of non-conductive material.
