It's how you string 2-3-4-x switches together in a box with a common hot.

Actually, a little bit of talent is required to do this nicely. I always appreciate someone who makes up boxes neatly.

Does it have a name?

I was going to go with "wire *******" but it just sounds wrong.

I re-wired old houses for 11 years and this connection as no name or term as far as I know.

WOW, that's a new term in electrical wiring for me

I am not an electrician (although I "play one" at times).

I have seen that a couple of times in older houses (+30 years). Every time it was the "perfect solution" to a tight situation !
