Perhaps someone who knows more about this can help me here, but is it possible to use split lock washers [between the top of the crimp connector and the bottom of the screw head - e.g. not between the main contact area of the connector and the terminal strip] on terminal strips to help prevent the screws from backing out?

EDIT: Thanks Al.
