Abstract
An electrical clamp connector for clamping ground conductors employs interconnecting male and female clamp sections having integrally extending jaws. The male clamp section forms a tongue which is received in a complementary groove defined by the female clamp section. The jaws include V-shaped holding surfaces and a retaining lip which allow the clamping of conductors of various sizes. The clamp sections are fastened together by a bolt passing through the female clamp section to threadably engage the male clamp section whereby the jaws are drawn together, clamping conductors received therein.
