It uses a screwless push-in spring clamp — the leg spring mechanism grabs the stripped wire when you push it into the entry, no screwdriver needed for the wire termination itself.

Wire Termination: Push-In Spring for 14-20 AWG
The 1-2834011-5 accepts 14-20 AWG wire. The push-in spring mechanism — officially a screwless leg spring — lets you terminate solid or ferruled stranded wire by simply pushing it into the clamp opening. No screw turning, no torque spec to hit. For stranded wire without a ferrule, the spring may not grip as reliably; a ferrule is recommended for stranded conductors in this style of clamp. The through-hole, kinked-pin mounting holds the block to the board during wave solder, and the vertical orientation means wires enter from the top, perpendicular to the PCB.
