Abstract
The present invention is to provide a connector terminal, which is crimp connected with an aluminum or aluminum alloy conductor having a large diameter, to be inserted into a terminal receiving chamber of a conventional connector housing designed for a copper conductor with less change of electrical characteristic and less modification. The connector terminal having the conductor of the present invention is widely adapted to a vehicle. The connector terminal crimping the electrical wire has a link portion longer than a link portion of a standard connector terminal so that an electrical wire crimp portion projects outwardly from a rearward face when the connector terminal is received in the connector housing. An insulation crimp portion is positioned spaced apart from the rearward face of the connector housing to prevent physical interference with the connector housing.
