<p>A folded 'V' shaped contact insulation displacement connector is modified to enable use with wires having hard insulation. The slot (20) separating the two contact blades (14, 16) has a constant width along its length. There is no enlarged aperture at the base of the slot so that the contact is most rigid at the bottom of the slot. The housing is modified to provide a small lateral and torsional clearance between the contacts and the cavities (42) and the housing (44) in which they are retained.</p> |
