2. Electrical connector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_connector

   [6]: 56 (e.g. pin headers, screw terminals, board-to-board connectors) Splice or butt connectors (primarily insulation displacement connectors) that permanently join two lengths of wire or cable; In computing, electrical connectors are considered a physical interface and constitute part of the physical layer in the OSI model of networking.

3. Wiring diagram - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiring_diagram

   An automotive wiring diagram, showing useful information such as crimp connection locations and wire colors. These details may not be so easily found on a more schematic drawing. A wiring diagram is a simplified conventional pictorial representation of an electrical circuit. It shows the components of the circuit as simplified shapes, and the ...

4. IDC (electrical connector) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IDC_(electrical_connector)

   An insulation-displacement contact (IDC), also known as insulation-piercing contact (IPC), is an electrical connector designed to be connected to the conductor(s) of an insulated cable by a connection process which forces a selectively sharpened blade or blades through the insulation, bypassing the need to strip the conductors of insulation ...

5. Western Union splice - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Western_union_splice

   The 1915 textbook Practical Electric Wiring describes the construction of the Western Union splice; short tie and long tie. The short tie splice has it being formed after stripping the insulation from a pair of wires for several inches, each, crossing the wires left over right as shown in figure part A; then, a hooked cross (figure part B) is formed holding the crossing point of the two wires ...

6. Line splice - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_splice

   The splicing of copper wires is mainly used on paper insulated wires. LSA techniques (LSA: soldering, screwing and stripping free) are used to connect copper wires, making the copper wires faster and easier to connect. LSA techniques include: Wire connection sleeves (AVH = Adernverbindungshülsen) and other crimp connectors.

7. Circuit diagram - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circuit_diagram

   A circuit diagram (or: wiring diagram, electrical diagram, elementary diagram, electronic schematic) is a graphical representation of an electrical circuit. A pictorial circuit diagram uses simple images of components, while a schematic diagram shows the components and interconnections of the circuit using standardized symbolic representations ...

8. Twist-on wire connector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twist-on_wire_connector

   Twist-on wire connectors are a type of electrical connector used to fasten two or more low-voltage (or extra-low-voltage) electrical conductors. They are widely used in North America and several European countries in residential, commercial and industrial building power wiring, but have been banned in some other jurisdictions.

9. Screw terminal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screw_terminal

   Two paired screw terminals, typically used for connecting ceiling-mounted light fixtures. Screw terminals are used extensively in building wiring for the distribution of electricity - connecting electrical outlets, luminaires and switches to the mains, and for directly connecting major appliances such as clothes dryers and ovens drawing in excess of 15 amperes.
