ABSTRACT:
A device for connecting wires. The device has two elements; an external element and an internal metal element. The external element is cylindrical and hollow. The external element has a central section with an outer surface that is hexagonal. The external element has an orifice at each end. Both orifices are sized into receive wires and have internal threads. The internal threads function to grip the insulation of the wires and draw the wires inside of the device to make contact with the internal metal element or contact. The internal metal element, or contact, is located inside the external element and is secured by an internal bearing surface. The internal element possesses sharp points for puncturing the insulation on filamentous wires that are inserted into the orifices of the device to complete electrical contact between the wires. Alternatively, the internal element has blunt ends for contacting solid wires.
