ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector is disclosed for receiving a wire wrapped thereto in wire-wrap fashion and a service wire removably connected thereto. In one application, a number of the connectors are mounted to a terminal block and are used to connect wires of a telephone cable, which are wire-wrapped to the connectors, to respective service wires, which are connected to respective connectors by a fastener arrangement. A connector according to the invention includes a first, electrically-conducting piece having an elongated post configured to receive a wire wrapped thereto in wire-wrap fashion and a second piece not directly fixed to the first piece including structure for connecting the service wire to the connector such that the service wire is electrically connected to the first piece, whereby an electrical path is established from the wrapped wire to the service wire through the first, electrically-conducting piece. For connecting the service wire, the second piece in a first embodiment comprises a female threaded member including a threaded bore, and the fastener comprises a screw engageable in that bore. In a second embodiment, the second piece includes a male threaded stud and the fastener comprises a nut engageable on that stud.
