Apparatus for connecting pairs of wires to each other has an operating zone through which a continuous strip of connecting devices is fed from an entrance side to an exit side thereof. The connecting devices have wire-receiving ends which face laterally of the strip and have separate metallic connecting means in each of the ends. A pair of wires are located in the operating zone with one wire in alignment with each of the wire-receiving ends. Insertion punches on each side of the strip insert each wire into a metallic connecting means. The process is then repeated for the second pair of wires to connect the pairs to each other. The connectors are fed to the exit side of the operating zone, and removed from the strip. The apparatus can also be used for making tap connections to the conductors in a cable. |
