Abstract
An electrical connector for electrically connecting two conductors. More particularly the connector includes a C-shaped body member having parallel, inwardly facing channels along each side for receiving conductors therein and a pair of toggle blocks pivotally hinged together and each having outwardly facing channels along one side. The toggle blocks, having a combined width greater than the space between conductors positioned in the inwardly facing channels, compress the conductors therein when drawn into the body member.
