Abstract:
A connector apparatus for connecting a plurality of electrical wires of a standard size is described. A connector body having a cylindrical shape including an open end for accepting the wires, a closed end, an interior and an exterior surface is shown. The connector body connects the wires and retains the wires in the interior when a twisting motion is applied to the connector body relative to an axis of the wires. The connector body is constructed of a transparent material that allows for visual inspection of the interior. A color marking for indicating the standard size of the wires is applied to a portion of the connector apparatus such that the interior remains visible for the visual inspection. A conductive coil can be positioned in a portion of the interior. The conductive coil has dimensions suitable for securely contacting the wires and aiding in the connecting of the wires.
