Connector for underwater devices

An electrical connector for use with an underwater electrical device, the underwater electrical device being connected to a source by electrical wiring, the connector adapted for connecting the source and the underwater electrical device without compromising the integrity of the electrical connection, the electrical device having an internal screw threads, the connector comprising:

• an insertion member for retaining the electrical wiring, the insertion member being elastic and deformable;
• a clamping member having an external screw for compatible engagement of the electrical device internal screw threads,
• a sealing member for sealing the connector to the electrical device, the sealing member being elastic and deformable;
• and
• the sealing and clamping members being sized and shaped for compression by the clamping member upon the full engagement of the screw threads, thus, providing a leak proof connection between the source and the electrical device for the electrical wiring.

An electrical connector for use with an underwater electrical device, the underwater electrical device being connected to a source by electrical wiring, the electrical wiring having a flexible outer covering, the connector adapted for connecting the source and the underwater electrical device without compromising the integrity of the electrical connection, the connector comprising:

• an insertion member for retaining the electrical wiring, the insertion member being elastic and deformable;
• a clamping member for compressing the insert member;
• and
• a sealing member for sealing the connector to the electrical device,
• the elements being potted together to retain the flexible outer covering of the wiring,
• whereby upon the electrical wiring being inserted and retained by the insertion member, the clamping member squeezes the member minimizing the amount of air between the insertion member and the electrical wiring and upon squeezing the insertion member, the sealing member forms a leak proof connection between the electrical device and the connector.
