terminal connector
Explanation:
(More context is needed. Can these connections possibly be through wires? In which case, "terminal" might be a terminal strip.)
(A "borne" is usually a terminal strip also, but may be a single lug on a terminal strip. Etc.)
Without more context, it is safer to use the broad term "terminal connector", which may be a blade-type connector, socket-type connector, crimp-type connector, etc.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Todas as extremidades dos cabos de comando deverão ser providas de terminais pré-isolados, que poderão, a depender do componente, ser do tipo pino TPP-22-L, forquilha TPF-22-5, encaixe FET-22-6, e em componentes onde a largura do borne o recomendar, deverão ser utilizados terminais pré-isolados tipo pino tubular (ilhós), ref TI-21. Os bornes da borneira(s) destinada(s) às conexões de campo de cada alvéolo/coluna do painel deverão ser utilizados apenas para cabos provenientes do campo.

Asker: Thank you :D
