ABSTRACT:
A connector for electrically and physically connecting to one or more insulated electrical cords or cables. The illustrated connector comprises a housing made of electrical insulating material and defining at least one receptacle in which are disposed one or more prongs of electrically conductive material. The receptacle and the prong therein are proportioned and arranged to receive one end of an electrical cord. The cord is inserted into the receptacle so that each prong extends into the end of the cord so as to make physical and electrical contact with a wire of the cord. There is also provided in each receptacle a contained portion of adhesive material which may be readily released from its container to create a physical bond between the cord and the connector. In one illustrated form the connector provides a pair of opposed receptacles for connecting together the ends of two electrical cords, each cord containing a pair of electrical wires. The connector may take other forms such as a switch or a male electrical connector which is connected to the end of a cord.
