ABSTRACT:
A connector that connects an electrode to a lead includes a connector housing. A conductive contact is positioned in the connector housing and has a tapered end, and a seating surface is positioned in the connector housing opposite the tapered end of the conductive contact. The seating surface and the tapered end are configured to positively retain an electrode when a connection hole of the electrode is positioned around the tapered end. The connector also includes a mechanism for pressing the seating surface against the tapered end of the conductive contact.
