9. Screw terminal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screw_terminal

   When properly tightened, the connections are physically and electrically secure because they firmly contact a large section of wire. The terminals are relatively low cost compared with other types of connector, and a screw terminal can easily be integrated into the design of a building wiring device (such as a socket, switch, or lamp holder).
