ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to an electrical connector for attachment to the end of an electrical cable. The connector includes a split body having contacts supported thereon for attachment to conductors of the cable. The split body accommodates cables of different diameters and is provided with a cable clamping member which can be placed in either of the split body portions. This cable clamping member cooperates with a clamping jaw on the other body member to clamp the cable between the cable clamping member and clamping jaw to provide strain-relief when the two body parts are joined. The cable clamping member is fitted with various ribs, tabs, etc. to properly position the cable clamping member in the body portions.
