ABSTRACT:
Connection is made to an insulated conductor (26) by the connector (2) of the invention without the need to pre-strip the conductor. The connector (2) comprises two contact members (12,14) that overlap to provide an aperture (21) for receipt of the insulated conductor (26). The connector (2) is recoverable, preferably by means of a memory metal strip (6), to cause the contact members (12,14) to slide relative to each other to reduce the aperture size, pierce the conductor insulation, and exert a permanent gripping force on the conductor.
