    Terminal

    Ready to install in panel boxes, switches, outlets, and other devices, these cords come with a spade terminal already attached to one end. No need to remove your mounting screw to install—just loosen it, slide the spade terminal in, then tighten the screw. These cords are made of stranded wire, which is more flexible than solid wire. They’re pliable enough to be pulled around corners and maneuvered in tight spaces.
    Wire Lead Connection—Cords with wire leads carry a charge between electrical components, such as from a splice to screw terminal. They’re also known as non-grounding pigtails.
    Ring Terminal Connection—Cords with a ring terminal are also known as grounding pigtails because they create a grounding connection when you fasten the screw into a metal surface, such as the inside of a junction box.
