An improved electrical tap connector 20 of the type having a C-shaped body member 22 having laterally opposing arcuate ears 26 extending laterally therealong and converging from a wide end to a narrow end, the body member 22 being adapted to receive a wedge member 40 having opposed converging side surfaces concave therealong defining wire-receiving channels 28 in cooperation with corresponding ones of the arcuate ears 26 opposed therefrom, a drive bolt causing the wedge member 40 to be driven into the wide end of the C-shaped body 22 and held therein, and a stabilizing member 34 at least affixed to one of the C-shaped and the wedge members 22, 40, the stabilizing member 34 being operable during movement of the wedge member 40 into a final connected position in the C-shaped member 22 to locate at least the front end 44 of the wedge member 40 substantially centrally between the arcuate ears 26 of the C-shaped member 22. The stabilizing member 34 in cooperation with an axial channel 48 on the other of the C-shaped and wedge members prevents axial movement and relative lateral movement of the front end of the wedge member 40 with resect to the C-shaped member 22.
