A connector for use in a track lighting system is provided. The connector comprises a housing formed of at least two nonconductive members one overlying the other. A cavity extends through the housing at the interface of the members and terminates in openings at opposite ends of the connector. A contact is positioned within the cavity and is designed to permit a conductor to enter the cavity through an opening but resists removal of the conductor from the opening. The housing is held together by two fasteners one of which has a coil spring wound about it so that when the fastener is loosened, the coil spring serves to urge the housing members apart to thereby enable the contact to disengage from the conductor.
