Abstract
A connector block enables an electrical device to be put into series with a cable having two wires, a drain and a metal sheath covered with an insulating covering. The insulating covering and the metal sheath are removed from a length L of the cable, and the drain and the wires are put into place longitudinally on a support provided with insulating piercing contact pieces for fixing and connecting the wires to a take-off cable. A cutting device slides in a housing in the support and cuts each wire between two contact pieces.
