Embodiment Construction

[0052] Reference will now be made to various embodiments, one or more examples of which are illustrated in the drawings. The examples are provided by way of explaining the present invention and are not meant to limit the present invention. For example, features illustrated or described as part of one embodiment can be used with another embodiment to yield a still further embodiment. It is intended that this application cover these and other modifications and variations as falling within the scope and spirit of the invention.

[0053] Disclosed herein is a wire-to-wire connector that includes at least two electrical contacts, an insulating housing, and a shunt. Such wire-to-wire connectors can be used to efficiently and reliably couple one or more wires mechanically and electrically to each other. Specifically, the connector allows efficient and rapid formation of an electrical and mechanical connection between the conductive elements of the insulated wire and the electrical ...

Abstract

This disclosure provides a method and apparatus for connecting and disconnecting a first wire to a second wire. More specifically, an apparatus that includes a first electrical contact, a second electrical contact, an insulated housing, and a male contact prong (i.e., a shunt) is disclosed. In an embodiment, the first and second electrical contacts conductively connect with a first and second wire, respectively, via an insulation displacement connector. Furthermore, the male contact prong conductively connects (i.e., shunts) the first and second electrical contacts together. A wire-to-wire contact with shunt allows for two wires to be quickly and efficiently connected and disconnected.
