ABSTRACT:
A wrench for installing or removing an electrical connector having a collar s provided. The wrench comprises two handles, an elongated sleeve, a shaft, a cam, and a grip. One end of the elongated sleeve slidably attaches to a hub of the grip while the other end slidably attaches to the first handle. The grip further comprises a semicircular-shaped claw which engages the collar of the electrical connector. The shaft is rotatably disposed within the interior of the sleeve. One end of the shaft is eccentrically connected to the cam and the other end is connected to the second handle. The second handle is positioned within an aperture of the first handle. During operation of the wrench, the user grasps both handles and maneuvers the wrench between a series of cables on one side of an electric terminal assembly having a plurality of interconnected cables until the grip is positioned over the collar of a connector of a selected electrical cable. The second handle is then rotated for the purpose of gripping the collar between the claw and the cam. The wrench is then selectively moved in either an axial or rotational direction for the purpose of either installing or removing the associated connector end of the interconnected cable.
