A preassembled wiring terminal subassembly for use in a hybrid electro-mechanical transmission includes a plurality of wires and a plurality of wire terminals each defining a respective attachment hole and being operatively connected to a respective one of the plurality of wires. The subassembly also includes a plurality of conductive rods each defining a hole, and a plurality of threaded fasteners each extending through the attachment hole of a respective wire terminal and through the hole of a respective rod. The terminals, rods, and threaded fasteners are sufficiently interconnected for movement as a unit during transmission assembly to facilitate the establishment of an electrical connection between a control unit and one or more motor/generators.
