A construction and method are employed for connecting leads and extensions that minimizes the need for set screws, and the times and physical efforts required of surgeons for connecting leads and connector blocks is reduced. An improved electrical and mechanical connector for the conductor comprises at least two components. First a multi-piece body forms a receptor for the conductor. At least one of the body pieces is electrically conductive. Second, an elastic member retains together the body pieces of the multi-piece body. The elastic member biases the body pieces into mechanical, restraining contact with the conductor, and biases the electrically conductive body piece into electrical contact with the conductor, when the conductor is introduced into the receptor. The elastic member further elastically yields under mechanical force to permit introduction of the conductor into the receptor.
