An electrical connector (10) that is assemblable from a dismantled to an assembled condition comprises a pair of electrically conducting connector parts (11, 12) that are securable together to define the connector. Each connector part (11, 12) has formed therein a cable recess (13) for receiving a respective cable requiring connection; each said recess (13) communicating with the exterior of the associated connector part via a cable insertion aperture (14); each connector part (11, 12) including one or more cable clamps (18) that are operable in order to clamp a cable inserted via the cable insertion aperture (14); and the said connector parts having respectively formed thereon or therein a mateable portion (21, 22), of a multi-part connection. The mateable portions (21, 22) are mutually engageable to prevent separation of the connector parts (11, 12) from one another in at least a first direction, one of the mateable portions (21, 22) being at least partly receivable within a recess formed in or defining the other mateable portion on assembly of the connector. |
