ABSTRACT:
A cap for a twist-on electrical connector includes a body formed of a semi-rigid insulating material and having a central bore, open at one end and closed at the other end by an integral end wall. The bore of the cap is formed to receive a wire clamping structure such as a coiled spring. The body has a first exterior portion of maximum diameter generally adjacent the open end. Substantially the remaining portion of the body is generally conical and has a pair of generally oppositely positioned laterally extending wings. The wings are each generally tangential to the conical body portion and the outwardly facing side of each wing has a concave pressure application surface area.
