Abstract
An electrical device in the form of an electrical connector includes a main body having an axial passage for receiving an electrical cord and a fixed jaw extending from the upper face of the main body. A movable jaw is connected to the fixed jaw by a plurality of screws for applying clamping forces to an electrical cord between the jaws. A movable clamping device is carried by either the fixed or movable jaw and is axially and rotationally movable from a first retracted position to an extended position into the passage between the jaw. Movement of the movable clamping device enables the connector to clamp different size electrical cords.
