Cable and wire connectors work in a variety of electrical jobs. While cable ties bundle wire and cable, terminals and splices perform well as electric terminations or connections in commercial applications. More specifically, fork terminals are often used to attach wire or cable to screws, while butt splices and disconnects may be applied at the ends of commercial belts. Bullet connectors allow for prompt connect and disconnect applications and, finally, blade and pin terminals are usually applied as electrical terminations for a conductor.
