Abstract

See full text

A plug (301) adapted to hold a wire (320) and to be received within a socket (330). The plug (301) comprises a plug body (302) comprising at least two plug body portions (500) that are connected to a plug body end (305), and a passage (307) extending substantially along a central longitudinal axis (501) of the plug body (302) for receiving the wire (320). The plug body (302) is configurable in a first wire-receiving configuration so that the wire (320) can be placed within the passage (307) and a second clamping configuration so that the plug body (302) can clamp to and retain the wire (320) within the passage (307) such that conducting strands (321) of the wire (320) extend substantially along the central longitudinal axis (501) of the plug body (302). The at least two plug body portions (500) are moveable away from the central longitudinal axis (501) into the first wire-receiving configuration, and are moveable towards the central longitudinal axis (501) into the second clamping configuration.
