A wire connector has a housing with a conductive clip therein. First and second retaining fingers are formed in the clip. Each finger engages a wire inserted into the housing to hold the wire in the housing. The fingers can be arranged for either a push-in or insulation displacement type connection. A conductive extension is electrically connected to the clip and extends out of the housing for connection to the terminus of an external electrical apparatus.
