A method includes providing a substrate having substrate terminals and providing a first component having a first terminal and a second terminal. The method includes providing a clip structure having a first clip, a second clip, and a clip connector coupling the first clip to the second clip. The method includes coupling the first clip to the first terminal and a substrate terminal and coupling the second clip to another substrate terminal. The method includes encapsulating the structure and removing a portion of the clip connector. In some examples, the first portion of the clip connector includes a first portion surface, the second portion of the clip connector includes a second portion surface, and the first portion surface and the second portion surface are exposed from a top side of the encapsulant. Other examples and related structures are also disclosed herein.

A field device connection unit has a main body, on which a plurality of connection elements for connection of connecting lines to field devices and a plurality of slots each intended for receiving a respective plug-in unit are arranged. The plug-in unit has a first group of field-side plug contact devices which are connected by the connection elements for connection of connecting lines to field devices, and a second group of system-side plug contact devices which are connected to a higher-level arrangement. For testing of the field device connection unit when the field wiring is disconnected, the plug-in units have a resilient latching cam, which latches switchably in a recess in the main body, the contacts of the second group of system-side plug contact devices being closed and the contacts of the first group of field-side plug contact devices being opened.

An electrical connector includes a housing formed of a fixed housing and a movable housing movable relative to the fixed housing. The connector further includes a terminal. The terminal includes a connecting portion to be connected to the electrical circuit board and a contact portion to be contacted with the mating connecting member. The terminal further includes a fixed side held portion, a movable side held portion, and an elastic portion. The connecting structure further includes a regulating portion for regulating the elastic portion from elastically deforming within a specific elastic deformation range. The elastic portion is configured to have a specific elastic deformation range. When the electrical connector is connected to the mating connecting member, the spring force is smaller than a holding force between the contact portion of the terminal and the mating connecting member in a direction that the electrical connector is pulled out.

A connecting terminal for connecting at least two electrical conductors to one another, wherein the connecting terminal has at least two separate housing parts which are mechanically connected to one another and each have a conductor insertion opening for at least one electrical conductor which is to be connected on opposite housing sides, wherein there is a first spring-force clamping connection for making electrical contact with a first electrical conductor in a first housing part of the at least two separate housing parts, and there is a second spring-force clamping connection for making electrical contact with the second electrical conductor in the second housing part of the at least two separate housing parts. A method for fitting a connecting terminal for connecting at least two electrical conductors is also provided.

A connector retention clip is disclosed. The connector retention clip can include a connector housing having a plurality of connector walls defining a connector opening operable to receive a coupled receptacle and plug connector therein. The plurality of connector walls can include a receptacle end wall and a plug end wall operable to extend about ends of the receptacle and plug, respectively, to provide a mechanical barrier preventing uncoupling of the coupled receptacle and plug connector. In addition, the connector retention clip can include a cable housing extending from the connector housing. The cable housing can have at least one cable wall defining a cable opening operable to receive a cable therein that extends from the coupled receptacle and plug connector.
