Abstract: The invention provides a battery terminal connector of the type having an elongate electrically insultaing body housing a battery terminal post engaging connector block electrically connected to an electrical cable, axially movable within the body, and urged by means of spring biasing means, in use, into contact with a battery terminal post received in a socket provided in the body. The body of the battery terminal connector is further provided with an integrally formed, inwardly directed flange for holding the spring within the body such that it bears against both the connector block and flange. Further, the body has an access opening for introducing the connector block, electrical cable, and spring therein in a substantially lateral direction.

Abstract: A battery terminal connector comprising a body made of electrically insulating material and having a socket extending transversely into the body towards one end thereof and adapted, in use, to receive a battery terminal post, a passage extending through the body in a direction transverse to the socket and a battery post engaging connector block axially movable within the passage so as to be co-operable with a battery terminal post received within the socket in use, at least one aperture in the body and adapted to expose a part of the electrically conductive surface of a battery terminal post or the connector block or both while the connector is attached to such terminal post.
