ABSTRACT:
A connector for conductively connecting a wire to a receptacle. The connector includes a hollow body having an axial bore for receiving the wire in an axial position and a housing adapted to be received in the body. Fingers on the housing urge the fingers against the wire radially inwards against shoulders on the body to axially position the wire as the housing is inserted into the body. Included is a system for connecting each of the three conductors of the stripped wire with the electrical prongs of the connector. The system includes brackets slidably mounted with the connector proximate to the prongs and which form cavities for receiving the conductors and screws for moving the brackets towards the prongs to capture the conductors in the cavities.
