ABSTRACT:
A waterproof and fire retardant connector having a rotatable wire connector with an end cap attached thereto with the wire connector filled with a sealant to permit the user to simultaneously compress the junction ends of electrical wires into low resistance electrical contact while forming a waterproof covering and spark inhibiting compound surrounding the twisted junction end of the wires. The process includes inserting the junction ends of electrical leads into a wire connector, which is filled with a waterproof and fire retardant sealant, and then either crimping or rotating the wire connector to simultaneously form an electrical connection and waterproof and spark inhibiting seal around the twisted junction ends of the wires.
