Original Abstract Submitted
an electrical connector includes a tubular wire connection portion having recess in which a wire is insertable. the recess extends in a first direction. the tubular wire connection portion crimps onto the wire. the electrical connector further includes a pin connection portion having first and second projections extending from the tubular wire connection portion, a first through hole that extends through the first projection, a second through hole that extends through the second projection, and a third through hole that is defined by the first projection and the second projection and extends in a direction transverse to the first and second through holes. the first and second through holes receive a fastener and move towards each other upon fastening of the fastener. the third through hole receives a pin and clamps the pin when the first and second through holes are moved towards each other by the fastener.
