摘要： The present invention provides an electrical connector, comprising a shuttle member for receiving a stripped multi-core cable (such as a twin and earth conductor cable), the shuttle member including a core guide means and a resilient clip member for each of the stripped cores to be received. A body portion is configured to support at least one shuttle member in sliding engagement and includes an array of terminal connections, each connection having a shaped contact to receive a respective clip member of the shuttle member. Each shaped contact defines a jaw member operable to compress a respective clip member when the shuttle member is fully engaged with the body portion to thereby grip the stripped cores of the multi-core cable. The electrical connector has particular application as an electrical junction box for lighting circuits.
