ABSTRACT:
A connector for joining multi-conductor cables comprising first and second mating connector elements which are fixed to first and second multi-conductor cables. The first connector element holds bared sections of the conductors of the first cable in a spaced apart relationship and defines upstanding pillars over which the conductors are folded. The second connector element holds bared sections of the conductors of the second cable in a spaced apart relationship and defines apertures adjacent to the conductors which are shaped to receive the upstanding pillars, so that respective conductors of the first and second cables are urged into electrical engagement with one another when the first and second connector elements are mated. The frictional contact between the conductors ensures a self-cleaning action.
