ABSTRACT:
A convenience electrical connector that is snap-mounted to a wall panel. The body portion forms a body planar surface that is adapted to grip the inner wall of the panel. A cover secures the inner side of the body member. A pair of opposed biasable arms connected to the cover extend through side recesses to a position where keeper planar walls at the ends of the arms are positioned to grip the outer wall of the panel after being biased inwardly along keeper ramps by opposed edges of the panel opening. The connector comprises two units, the body and the cover with the two connected arms. Mounting is accomplished by inserting the arms into recesses and pressing the two units together. A pair of snap-in flanges at the ends of the cover are biased outwardly by clamped lock members at the side walls of the body portion and then self-biased into a locking mode with the body portion.
