Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
An electrical terminal is provided and includes a first member and a second member. The first member includes a pair of connecting face portions, a coupling portion, and a plurality of serrations. The pair of connecting face portions face each other in a substantially V shape such that a gap between inner faces of the pair of connecting face portions gradually becomes smaller from a wider-gap side to a narrower-gap side. The coupling portion connects the pair of connecting face portions at ends of the narrower-gap side of the inner faces. The plurality of serrations are disposed on the pair of inner faces and extend along intersecting directions. The second member has a substantially U shape that mates with the pair of connecting face portions and can displace outer side faces of the pair of connecting face portions inward to urge the inner faces closer to each other.
