Abstract
An insulation piercing connector includes a connector body, a bolt, a piercing pin, and an insulator member that electrically insulates the piercing pin from the bolt. The connector body includes a cable receiving slot and a threaded bore in communication with the cable receiving slot. The bolt includes a threaded shank with a central bore, and a head joined to the threaded shank by a shear-off section. The piercing pin is supported within the central bore by the insulator member and includes opposite first and second ends. The first end is configured to pierce the insulation of an electrical cable extending through the cable receiving slot and contact a conductor. The central bore of the bolt threadingly receives a sensor. The sensor includes a probe that contacts the second end of the piercing pin to obtain information from the conductor, such as voltage, current, and/or thermal information.
