A crocodile clip or alligator clip [1] is a plier-like spring-tensioned metal clip with elongated, serrated jaws that is used for creating a temporary electrical connection. This simple mechanical device gets its name from the resemblance of its serrated jaws to the toothed jaws of a crocodile or alligator .
Alligator and Crocodile clips – conductive clamps used for temporary connections, e.g. jumper cables; Board to board connectors – e.g. card-edge connectors or FPGA mezzanine connectors; Twist-on wire connectors (e.g. wire nuts) – used in low-voltage power circuits for wires up to about 10 AWG; Wire wrapping – used in older circuit boards

Triaxial BNC connector, typically used on precision electrical measurement equipment. Triaxial cable, often referred to as triax for short, is a type of electrical cable similar to coaxial cable, but with the addition of an extra layer of insulation and a second conducting sheath.
Oppose per ENGVAR and RETAIN, unless someone can convince me that "alligator clip" is a distinct thing in British English. I have always heard them called "crocodile clips". Spinning Spark 22:47, 30 July 2015 (UTC) Comment. "Alligator clip" was the name given to this device when it was invented in 1908. The company that invented it (Mueller ...
The TNCA connector is a variant of the TNC connector specified in MIL-STD-348 [1] designed to provide an air gap in the dielectric region between the male and female connectors.
