Abstract
An electrical geophysical connector comprising an outer housing, a first connection member and a second connection member. First and second coacting electrical contacts are positioned in the first and second members, respectively. The first member includes a rigid outer shell and a resilient inner core bonded to the first electrical contacts. The first ends of the first contacts are positioned in cavities located in one end of the inner core and resilient seal rings are formed about the cavities for engaging and sealing the coacting engagement of the first and second contacts. A dust cap is rotatably mounted with a 360.degree. rotation to the housing and the exterior of the housing is tri-lobed in cross section for ease of gripping.
