is an inverter. If you select the second picture, you'll see the DC input terminals. They unscrew so that a spade terminal such as this can be connected
But what's the term used to describe the terminal on the device?

They sometimes also will accept banana plugs in the middle of the post, like these do:
but use of banana plugs for high current applications such as your inverter is not recommended.
Yes.
After Nik told me what they're called I was able to to find some in an online catalogue. All my previous searches for screw, terminal and connector, and combinations thereof, had failed to find them.

I was taught many many years ago that "binding post" is the American name for what we Brits (and hence RS and Maplin) call a "terminal". (Maplin goes half way across the Atlantic with "terminal post".) So you also need to know where the questioner is.

Sylvia showed a picture of a 'male' binding post.
Google is your friend, if you know what term(s) to type in. If not, it's a frustrating experience.
