ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector for clamping a cable to an electrical junction box. The connector has a cylindrical body with a flange at one end and a male threaded portion adapted to mate with the threads of a female connector receptacle on the box. The connector includes a cable immobilizer that receives the cable inserted into the box from the flanged end of the connector and which bites into the cable insulation such that the cable cannot be withdrawn after insertion. In a preferred aspect the connector has radially extending protrusions which in concert with the end flange allow the connector to insert into and lock in a non-threaded, knock-out style connector receptacle.
