A terminal for connecting electrical conductors which cleaves the electrical conductor as it is connected to the terminal without the use of an additional tool. The terminal (50) includes at least one support post (54) having a slot (62) for receiving an electtrical conductor (80), wherein the electrical conductor is lodged in the slot to create an electrical connection between the conductor and the support post. As the electrical conductor is lodged in the slot, the conductor is cleaved on one side of the slot during the same motion by the installer of lodging in the conductor slot. The terminal also includes a pivotal tab (106) connected to the slot which may be moved by the hands of an installer to release the connection between the conductor and the slot to allow easy removal and replacement of the conductor. The terminal allows the electrical conductors to be installed, cleaved, and removed by the hands of an installer without the use of any tools.

Cette borne, destinée à connecter des conducteurs électriques, fend le conducteur électrique au moment de sa connexion à la borne, sans l'aide d'un outil supplémentaire. La borne (50) comporte au moins un montant support (54) présentant une fente (62) destinée à recevoir un conducteur électrique (80), lequel est logé dans la fente pour créer une connexion électrique entre le conducteur et le montant support. Lors du placement du conducteur électrique dans la fente, le conducteur est fendu sur un côté de la fente au moment même de son introduction dans la fente, par l'installateur. La borne comprend également une languette pivotante (106) reliée à la fente et pouvant être déplacée manuellement par un installateur, afin de libérer la connexion entre le conducteur et la fente et permettre un enlèvement et remplacement faciles du conducteur. Grâce à cette borne, un installateur peut installer, fendre et enlever manuellement les conducteurs électriques sans utiliser un quelconque outil.
