Abstract
A connector assembly comprises a base, a conventional lay in conductor connector channel, a blade contact superstructure and a blade contact. The base has the blade contact superstructure appended to one sidewall thereof. The blade contact superstructure has a cavity between generally 'V' shaped blade receiving supports. The blade contact is a plated copper strip and is inserted into the cavity between the blade receiving supports where the blade contact then becomes an interface between the superstructure and an electrical blade inserted in the blade contact.
