ABSTRACT:
A multicontact electrical connector comprising a two-piece connector housing in which electrical contacts are mounted within one of the housing sections. The rearward ends of the contacts are provided with slotted tubular termination sections which are adapted to receive insulated wires to form electrical and mechanical connections between the contacts and the wires. The second section of the housing functions as a tool which forcibly inserts the wires into the termination sections of the contacts at an acute angle. A plurality of wires may be connected to the contacts simultaneously at a work site without the necessity of any special tool or fixture. The termination sections of the contacts may be utilized for terminating flat cables as well as insulated round wires.
