Abstract
A device for making an electrically conductive contact to an insulated cable lead, comprising a holder for the cable lead which is to be contacted, and an electrically conductive perforation needle for penetrating the insulating jacket of the lead. In a preferred embodiment an indicator unit shows when successful contact has been made. The device allows contact to be made to an existing cable lead without cutting that cable lead. It also causes minimal damage to the insulation of the existing cable.
