Italian term or phrase: connettore mammut
Dear folks,

I hope you can help me... this term occurs in a text about primary and secondary windings. The sentence is:

"In caso di più pastiglie termiche queste devono essere tra loro collegate in serie e riportate sulla morsettiera di cablaggio del trasformatore su connettore mammut per sezioni massime di 4mmq"

Do you say a "mammoth connector" or is there another term?
Any suggestions much appreciated!
