Help me with connecting two wires


I don't really know how to make a circuit diagram or whatever so here's a picture of basically what I'm trying to do.

Strip the insulation and wrap the bare wires together. Or if they go into a screw terminal, put them both into the same terminal slot.

Can you put two wires in the same terminal slot if they go into a screw terminal?

Oh, you can!

However, my wires have these little box things at the end that makes it kinda hard

Where's that handy 'breadboard'?

Can you use the breadboard to power the arduino by connecting the buses?

How do I do this?

What is this for?

Why not?

I figured that I can connect 2 wires on one screw terminal. But, that's a way to consider!

Until you buy a roll of 22 AWG solid core wire and a wire stripper your options are considerable limited.

all wires that are inserted into one clamp have contact to each other
see the example on the right where
5 blue wires
5 yellow-green wires
5 brown wires

are connected to each other

You simply open the lever, insert the wire, close the lever
good reliable contact and the wire is hold very tight mechanically through the clamp-mechanism.
With the lever closed you would have to pull with a real high force to rip out the wire.
