ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector device can be formed to be substantially fluid tight. This device can comprise a body having teeth and an optional insert having two sides with at least two sets of teeth wherein a first set of teeth is disposed on a first side of the insert, and a second set of teeth are disposed on a second side of the insert. The first set of teeth are for mating with the teeth on the body to form a substantially sealed connection between the insert and the body. There can also be a sealing nut for securing over the insert and the body, wherein the sealing nut includes a set of teeth wherein when the sealing nut is screwed down onto the body, the set of teeth on the sealing nut mate with the second set of teeth on the insert to form a substantially sealed connection between the sealing nut and the insert. The spacer then keeps each of these soldered wires separate from each other. In this case, the soldered connection can be used to prevent the wicking of fluid inside of the connection, and also the cavity is filled with a sealant so that if fluid or any other fluid enters into this connection, it does not flow to either side of the soldered point.
