110.14(A), rule for conductors on a terminal

[Steve Spiecker]

Hey Mike Holt Enterprises, should 110.14(A) read …one conductor ‘end’ or terminal, instead of one conductor or terminal? When someone strips at mid-wire, and wraps a screw, and has what looks like two wires coming out from the screw and no ends, is this permitted by 110.14? In my mind I’m struggling with the power source coming TO this screw may be one conductor, and even though the wire isn’t cut, would the part coming FROM the screw be considered a second conductor, as it’s purpose is feeding out, once it leaves the screw connection?
