Abstract
An electrical connector comprising two inner members movably positioned between the legs of a U-shaped outer member with the facing surfaces of the inner members and legs having cooperating, passage-forming grooves in which conductors may be positioned. Upon driving the connector onto an edge of a metallic framework, the inner members are driven outwardly against the legs to crimp conductors which may be positioned in the passages. Teeth on the inwardly facing surfaces of the inner members are adapted to grip the edge to hold the connector thereon.
