Abstract

A pressure contact cable holder comprises a plurality of first holding claws spacedly arranged in a row and a plurality of second holding claws spacedly arranged in a row in parallel relation to the first holding claws. First grooves are formed between adjacent ones of the first holding claws and are adapted to hold two cables passing therethrough, and second grooves are formed between adjacent ones of the second holding claws and are adapted to hold two cables passing therethrough. The first grooves are displaced relative to the second grooves in a direction of the row. Two cables are held by one of the first grooves and are also held by two adjacent second grooves having a common second holding claw arranged opposite the first grooves. Contact receiving ports are arranged in position in conformity with the cables and between the first grooves group and the second grooves group.
