Abstract: An electrical terminal connection is made by interconnecting two identical terminals having U-shaped blades. In the past, electrical connections have typically been made by inserting a blade terminal into a receptacle terminal. One embodiment of the inventive connection includes a terminal having a spring contact strip with a plurality twisted contact louvers within each U-shaped blade. Another embodiment of the inventive connection includes a terminal having a U-shaped blade with corrugated sides. Both embodiments increase the contact area while reducing the engagement force necessary to mate the terminals.
