Patent attributes
An electrical connector has a connector housing, a conductive contact, and a housing cover. The connector housing has a plurality of wire receiving passageways, and a plurality of elastic wire holders. The conductive contact has a plurality of wire insulation cutting blades electrically connected together, each cutting blade having a tapered tip. The housing cover is connected to the conductive contact, and together with the conductive contact, is positioned on the connector housing such that when a plurality of conductive wires are positioned in the plurality of wire receiving passageways, after the housing cover has been positioned on the connector housing, the conductive contact has pierced through an outer insulation sheath of the conductive wires and is in contact with a conductive core thereof.
