Patent attributes
Disclosed are methods and apparatus for providing and installing electrical wire connector clamps that may be inserted into knockout holes from the inside of an electrical box or panel, that are capable of holding multiple wires or cables, that may be run through the connector before it is slotted into the hole, and that use only a minimal amount of interior space of the electrical box or panel. Embodiments of the present invention include semi-cylindrical units that may be folded together around one or more wires for secure engagement with the wires and with a knockout hole of an electrical box or panel. Embodiments may be used in new construction, and to replace existing connector clamps in an electrical box or panel from the inside without damaging the walls surrounding the box or panel, in order to securely hold wires in an electrical box or panel, add new wire(s), hold multiple wires, and/or increase available space inside the box or panel.
