An electrical connector 50 of the type having a C-shaped body member 52 having laterally opposing arcuate ears 60 extending therealong from a wide to a narrow end, the wide end being adapted to receive a wedge member 72 having opposed converging side surfaces 80 defining wire-receiving channels 70 in cooperation with corresponding ones of the arcuate ears 60 opposed therefrom, all for receipt thereinto of respective uninsulated wire conductors therealong to be interconnected upon compression between the wedge member 72 and the C-shaped body member 52 by actuation of a drive bolt 44 causing the wedge member 72 to be driven into the wide end of the C-shaped body member and held therein. The C-shaped body member 52 includes an axial corrugation 64 extending from a far end to a transverse section at a bolt receiving end 67 defining a bolt receiving relief 65, the relief 65 having a concave dimension just large enough to permit passage of a bolt shank therealong. A bolt receiving aperture 68 is positioned in a transverse body section 58 so that the centerline thereof extends therefrom along the bolt receiving relief 65, whereby the bolt shank 46 is just recessed below the plane defined by the wedge proximate surface, thereby minimizing the distance between the centerline of bolt 44 and the centerline of wedge 72 thus minimizing skewing of wedge 72 as the connector 50 is assembled. |
