Abstract: An efficient connector of the insulation displacement type with specific useful features for maintaining an electrical connection with an insulated conductive lead. Generally, the connector includes a terminal unitary terminal having a body portion with a leg extending therefrom. The leg has a compression side, a proximal end and a distal end. The proximal end has an arcuate portion with an aperture formed therein. The distal end has a fork with a pair of prongs defining an open slot. Formed in the compression side of the leg is a notch that, like the aperture, aids in bending and maintaining the leg in contact with an electrical lead.
