An electrical wire connector of the type having a bifurcate bolt (22,64) has a base member (20,72) and two opposed prongs (22,24,70). The prongs are spaced apart to define a wire receiving channel (40) therebetween. A nut (14,74) is threadable onto the bolt about the prongs, the nut cooperates with a slide (13,73) to engage a first respective wire (18) and to urge the wire and other wires (16) into electrical engagement with each other. The bolt has resilient portions (28,30,66) which supply a force which acts upon the wires. The force supplied by the resilient portions is of sufficient magnitude to ensure that the wires will be maintained in electrical engagement even when the split bolt is exposed to harsh environments. |
