Authoring a component for wiring

Hello,

I have a question about authoring an electrical component for wiring.  How would you go about setting up the pins for this component:

I'm not an electrical engineer so I'm not sure what you'd call it.  I think I've heard the electrical engineer call it a junction block.  It basically has two pins and can be combined with other junction blocks to connect several wires together and get only one wire coming out the other side.

I'm trying to get both pins defined but Inventor wont let me do it.

 

This is what I'm left with when I connect wires to both pins:

 

 

 

This isn't a big deal to me since it doesn't really effect the wiring schematic, I'm just wondering if there's a way to make this look right.  Thanks for you input.
