A substantially U-shaped electric connecting terminal wherein a plate-like web is flanked by and is integral with two sidewalls. The web has a centrally located partly circular opening and two sector-shaped springy lugs which extend into the opening. Each sidewall has an outer panel which is integral with the web and an inner panel which is integral with the respective outer panel and carries a springy lug which overlies a portion of the opening. The dimensions of the lugs are selected in such a way that, when the web is impaled on a cylindrical or polygonal stud of a support for the terminal, the tips of the lugs frictionally engage the peripheral surface of the stud and hold the terminal in a selected position with reference to the support. The lugs of the sidewalls alternate with the lugs of the web and define therewith slots which extend radially of the opening.
An electric connecting terminal for impaling on a stud or an analogous protuberance of a support, comprising a web having a stud-receiving opening and two first stud-engaging projections extending into said opening;
