ABSTRACT:
An electrical wire connector of the type having a wedge with converging side surfaces forcible into a C-shaped member between converging ears thereof, includes concave channel portions of the wedge side surface opposing arcuate inner surfaces of the ears to clamp a transmission line, stirrup, and strain clamp member therein under substantial clamping force to common and mechanically join them. The strain clamp cooperates with the electrical wire connector to prevent forces applied to the transmission line from being transmitted to the stirrup, thereby ensuring that a positive electrical connection is maintained between the transmission line and the stirrup.
