A pressure- wire terminal may be either of the following types: a) Clamp-Type – A pressure-wire terminal in which the conductor is held under a pressure plate or saddle clamp by one or more screws. This type of terminal may be provided in combination with a wire-binding screw terminal. b) Setscrew-Type – A pressure-wire terminal in which the pressure is applied by the end of the screw bearing on the conductor, either directly or through a wire-protecting pad. c) Combination Wire Binding/Pressure-Type – A wire binding screw with an integrally machined pressure ring.
