Abstract

An electrical plug connector adapted for connection with individual insulated wires of an electrical conduit comprises a housing having a plurality of elongated chambers each in line with a coupling element fixed in the housing. Each coupling element includes an elongated bifurcated jaw section having opposed inner knife edges that extend within an elongated chamber. A movable block within each housing chamber includes a first hole for receiving the end of an insulated wire to be terminally attached to a coupling element and a second hole for receiving a tool adapted to move the slider block within its chamber toward the jaw section of a coupling element so that the insulated wire previously placed within the slider block will move between the knife edges of the jaw section to provide an electrical contact. When each slider block is locked into its wire contacting position, the housing is closed and the connector is ready for use.
