Abstract

An electrical connector assembly for a wellhead penetrator includes a first connector including an insertion body and defining a bore, the bore being configured to receive an electrical conductor. The insertion body includes a helical engaging member and defines a helical slot. The assembly includes a second connector defining a cavity therein, the cavity being configured to receive at least a portion of the insertion body therein, and the cavity being tapered such that advancing the insertion body into the cavity causes the helical engaging member to compress radially inwards into engagement with the electrical conductor.
