Google images do indeed show this term as the clip for 
attaching wiring, and I don't know of it being called a staple 
in English. However Daijrin has this as ステープル, although 
the images for that word primarily show the Hotchkiss variety. 
We could (a) have two entries, effectively ignoring Daijirin, 
or (b) combine them with 2 (or 3) senses and the electrical 
sense limited to ステップル. Suggestions?

I can't find an authoritative definition on the web.
  Comments:
In Japanese, a "ステップル" is a fixture which attaches 
electrical cables to wooden building materials, so it's 
debatable whether to include the general word "staple" as 
a translation for this. The normal "staples" used to 
attach pieces of paper together are not called by this 
name.
