Abstract
Apparatus for resilient electrical and mechanical connection is disclosed where a mount is configured with a central connector and at least one post. The central connector is configured to pass through an opening in a surface and engage threaded connection with a recessed nut. One or more posts are configured to pass through additional openings in the surface and engage a co-radial groove in the recessed nut that allows for tightening of the recessed nut to the mount on opposite sides of the surface while receiving the one or more posts.

An electrical connector comprising:
- a mount comprising a conductive sheath with a first opening in a first axial direction, a second opening in a second axial direction, and a central connector;
- a mounting flange exterior to said first opening;
- said central connector comprising connector threads exterior to said second opening;
- a first post disposed on said mounting flange spaced apart in a radial direction from said central connector and extending in said second axial direction;
- a recessed nut comprising nut threads configured for threaded connection with said connector threads;
- and
- a continuous co-radial groove disposed in said recessed nut, open to said first axial direction, and configured to receive said first post wherein rotation of said recessed nut establishes threaded connection with said mount.

An electrical connector comprising;
- a mount and a recessed nut configured for threaded attachment through a surface;
- wherein said mount comprises a first post and a second post positioned on opposing sides of a central axis and a central connector comprising connector threads;
- said recessed nut comprises nut threads and a co-axial groove open in a first axial direction and facing said first post and said second post and configured to receive said first post and said second post and allow for continuous rotation of said recessed nut about said central connector;
- said surface comprises a first surface opening configured to receive said first post extending in a second axial direction, a second surface opening configured to receive said second post extending in said second axial direction, and a central opening configured to receive said central connector;
- and
- said recessed nut can be rotated relative to said mount to press said surface between said mount and said recessed nut to prevent movement of said mount relative to said surface.
