The connector has a generally cylindrical connector housing, a supporting arm projected radially outwardly form the wall of the connector housing, a clamping tab integral with the supporting arm, the supporting arm and the clamping tab as a unit being cantilevered by the connector housing in such a manner that the clamping tab extends over a certain portion of the circumference of wall of the connector housing at a suitable distance from the latter, the clamping tab being provided at its surface facing the wall of the connector housing with a wire receiving recess, and at least two axial protrusions formed on the outer surface of wall of the connector housing so as to oppose to the wire receiving recess of the clamping tab and extending in the axial direction of the connector housing. The wire receiving recess of the clamping tab and the protrusions on the wall of the connector housing cooperate in clamping therebetween the BUS wire or the like stationary member so that the connector itself is stably fixed to the latter.
