Abstract
A modular electrical connector back shell apparatus that provides wire strain relief when using pre-wired modules for electrical wiring applications. The apparatus includes a housing, a modular frame insertable into the housing, and a plurality of modular connectors insertable into the modular frame. The housing includes a plurality of wire-tie receiving orifices for fastening the wires in the pre-wired modular connectors to the housing via a wire-tie inserted through at least two wire-tie receiving orifices and fastened around at least one wire.
