ABSTRACT:
A connector is provided for attaching and mounting a first electrical device, such as a carbon monoxide detector (36) or a motion detector, to a second electrical device such as a smoke detector (34) or another source of electrical power premounted on the ceiling or wall. The connector comprises an elongated member defining spaced first and second apertures (18,28). At least a portion of the first aperture (18) may extend only partway through the elongated member to provide a back wall which is used for securing the connector to the wall or ceiling. The second aperture (28) extends completely through the elongated member, for receiving the preinstalled second electrical device (34). A channel (32) is defined in the elongated member extending between the first and second apertures, to provide an enclosed space for electric wire (38) to connect between the respective electrical devices mounted in the respective apertures.
