Abstract (en)

A connector which can make electrical connection to the wires in a highway cable without cutting the cable is formed with two hinged members which can be closed together to make the connection. On closing, conducting needles penetrate the insulation of the cable to contact the wire core. For a co-axial cable, the needle for the central core is insulated except at the tip.
