Method and device for applying an electrical terminal to one or more electrical conductors, whether insulated or not, and electrical terminal suitable for this purpose

摘要

The invention provides a method for applying an electrical terminal to one or more conductors, possibly provided with an external electrical insulation layer, comprising the following steps: placing the end portions of the conductors in a housing portion of the terminal; applying heat and pressure in such a way as to compact and/or join the end portions of the conductors and the housing portion of the electrical terminal and to remove any respective electrical insulation layers at least at the level of the housing portion of the electrical terminal. The application of pressure and heat causes the opposite walls to close on the end portions of the conductors. Said electrical terminal comprises an electrical connection portion that extends from the housing portion. The invention also concerns a device or piece of equipment for the application of an electrical terminal, a metal element and an electrical terminal.
