The invention is directed to an electrical connector having a main body with a conductor receiving passageway extending therethrough. The conductor receiving passageway has a conductor gripping surface with an upper level and a lower level for engaging a conductor. A pair of gripping jaws are moveable to secure a conductor within the conductor receiving passageway, there being a longer gripping jaw corresponding to the lower level and a shorter gripping jaw corresponding to the upper level. The conductor is secured within the conductor receiving passageway between the longer gripping jaw and the lower surface and also between the shorter gripping jaw and the upper surface.
