Abstract
A connector for connecting a pair of electrical leads to a ground electrode includes an upper connector plate and a lower connector plate, both formed of an electrically non-conductive material, and a pair of leaf spring contact means which are connected to said upper and lower connector plates and by which the plates are spring biased apart. A pair of connector posts are mounted on the side of the lower plate facing the upper plate, and may be engaged by a spring biased latch means carried on the upper plate. The latch means holds the lower and upper plates together securely with the connection tab of an electrode therebetween.
