Electrical cable clamp having overlapping contact members with insulating cover

An electrical cable clamp for releasably securing an electrical cable to a part, the electrical cable clamp comprising:

• a pair of clamp members, each comprising a handle and a jaw;
• an electrically insulative cover encasing each jaw;
• first and second electrically conductive, opposed contact members mounted in free ends of the jaws, each contact member including a pair of parallel, spaced apart sides, when in the closed position the sides of the first contact member overlapping the sides of the second contact member, whereby the insulative cover of one jaw abuts the insulative cover on the surface of the other jaw limiting access to the contact members;
• a pin pivotally connecting the clamp members between the handles and the jaws permitting movement of the clamp members between a closed position and an open position in which the contact members are separated from each other and exposed for receiving the part therebetween;
• and
• a spring biasing the clamp members toward the closed position.
