Abstract
A terminal assembly includes a terminal block of a dielectric material defining a plurality of bores therethrough. A respective terminal contact of an electrically conductive material is seated in each of the respective bores. The terminal contact defines a longitudinal axis therethrough with a terminal bore defined through the terminal contact along the longitudinal axis. A divider wall separates the terminal bore into a solder cup for a lead wire on an interior side of the terminal bore, and a lug receptacle on an exterior side of the terminal bore.
