Abstract
A strain relief adapter for providing strain relief for insulated conductors which are electrically connected to respective insulation-piercing contact portions supported in respective spaced parallel channels on opposite sides of an electrical connector comprises a pair of one-piece molded structures each of which includes a plurality of pressure members spaced to be received in the respective channels to engage and press against the electrically connected portions of the conductors, conductor clamping means in the form of a comb-shaped edge having a plurality of constricted openings for receiving respective conductors, and a force diversion member extending parallel to, but directed away from, the pressure members and the comb-shaped conductor clamp, also in the form of a comb, to receive the conductors between the teeth thereof for preventing dislocation of the conductors from the insulation-piercing contact portions in response to the application of pulling forces on the conductors.
