ABSTRACT:
A clamping device having a U-shape provides a mechanical and electrical connection between two flat ribbons or strips of electrically conductive material. The strips of material may, for example, be thin copper bars for grounding purposes in an underground telephone vault. A mounting means allows the clamp to be secured to a structure wall. A pair of threaded bolts are offset from each other and are mounted in opposite legs of the U-shaped clamp. The bolts are formed with slotted heads for securing another conductor, such as a ground wire or ground ribbon, therein.
