ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE This invention relates to a solderless termination system, where a wire is engaged and held by blades or jaws. Prior art termination of this type are physically weak and exhibit undesirable change in contact resistance between the terminated wire and the terminating system after being subject to time and hostile environments. This invention overcomes such deficiencies of the prior art by providing an electrical termination system in which the wire receiving portion is defined by spaced apart sides for receiving a wire between them and at least one pair of formed- in jaws in the sides. The jaws are formed opposite each other presenting a narrowed space between them. The formed-in jaws are integral with the sides of each of their lateral extremities. In a further aspect, a lead- in portion is provided by notching the sides at the jaws establishing an angle to the upper edge of the jaws to aid in locating the wire and direct- ing it into the jaws. In the area which contacts the wire, the lead-in edge desirably has a transition portion which comprises a coined edge in order to present to an entering wire a smoothly angled embossing surface. In addition, the jaws may be freed at their lower ends.
