Electrical connector with sliding collar

摘要

A connector assembly for providing contact between the conductors of an electric power cable and a plurality of leads. The connector assembly includes a distribution block connected to the leads, and a connector slidably mounted on the block for providing contact between the cable conductors and the block. The connector includes a split collar for receiving and clamping about the cable conductors and a pair of opposing legs projecting outwardly from the free ends thereof. The legs are slidably received within a channel formed along one side of the block for selective positioning thereon. A set screw secures the cable conductors within the connector and simultaneously fixes the location of the connector on the block and assures intimate contact of the connector with the block by spreading the legs of the connector to firmly engage the sides of the channel.
