Electrical compression connector

An electrical compression connector comprising:

• a first section having a first conductor receiving channel extending into a top side of the connector;
• and
• a second section integrally formed with the first section, the second section having a second and a third conductor receiving channel extending into opposite respective first and second lateral sides of the connector,
• wherein the second conductor receiving channel comprises opposing concave surfaces having different shapes, wherein a first one of the concave surfaces has a first radius of curvature and a second one of the concave surfaces has a second different radius of curvature, and wherein the second radius of curvature is at least about 25% smaller than the first radius of curvature.

An electrical compression connector and electrical conductor assembly comprising:

• an extruded electrical compression connector comprising a first generally U-shaped section forming a first conductor receiving channel, and a second section integrally formed with the first section, the second section comprising a second conductor receiving channel with opposing first and second curved conductor contact surfaces each having a different radius of curvature, the second section having a bottom cantilevered curved leg forming the second contact surface;
• and
• a class K electrical conductor located in the second conductor receiving channel,
• wherein, when the connector is compressed onto the conductor, the leg is deformed towards the first contact surface, and wherein a second one of the radii of curvature is at least about 25% smaller than a first one of the radii of curvature.
