DEFINITION

Classification: 439/411

Comprising screw, screw operated cutter, or screw means to move conductor against cutter:

(under subclass 391) Electrical connector (a) wherein the penetrating contact is helically ribbed and supported for rotation about the helical axis and longitudinal movement along the helical axis as guided by the rib with respect to the remainder of the device when making contact; (b) having with a component to move the penetrating contact wherein the component is helically ribbed and supported for rotation about the helical axis and longitudinal movement along the helical axis as guided by the rib with respect to the remainder of the device when moving the contact; or (c) a. comprising an electrical connector having a base and having a component to move the strandlike conducting member relative to the base and against the penetrating contact, or b. comprising a baseless electrical connector having a component to move the strandlike conducting member with respect to any other part of the device (e.g.., with respect to the penetrating contact), wherein the component is distinct from the contact, is helically ribbed and supported for rotation about the helical axis and longitudinal movement along the helical axis as guided by the rib with respect to the remainder of the device when moving the conductor.
