Abstract: An electrical connector for use with top and side-mount battery terminals incorporates a fork shaped connecting surface that is adapted to fit about the tapered head portion of a side-mount automotive battery terminal bolt. The two prongs of the connector defining the fork shape are adapted to grip around the slightly tapered surface of the battery terminal bolt head. This fork element of the battery cable connector is retained in place by (1) space opposed indentions that engage the battery terminal bolt tapered head surface and (2) the opposing jaw of the battery terminal connector. The battery booster cable clamp also includes standard toothed jaws that enable the clamp to be fastened onto standard top-mount post-type battery terminals or post-type automotive battery cable terminals in the customary fashion.
