ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE This invention relates to a strain relief adapter for an elec- trical connector. Strain relief apparatus for an electrical connector which employs a plurality of insertion blades which have a two-fold purpose has been disclosed. Two adapters may be mounted on opposite sides of an elongated electrical connector and a common hood may be slid over the adapters to provide additional positive retention of the adapters. The present invention provides an improved strain relief which may be installed on the rear portion of an electrical connector which has already had conductors electrically connected to the contacts of the con- nector and which is more suitable than prior adapters for use in connection with termination tools. The present invention provides a pair of one-piece molded structures each of which includes a plurality of pressure members spaced to be received in the respective channels to engage and press against the electrically connected portions of the conductors, conductor clamping means in the form of a comb-shaped edge having a plurality of constructed openings for receiving respective conductors, and a force diversion member extending parallel to, but directed away from, the pressure members and the comb-shaped conductor clamp, also in the form of a comb, to receive the conductors between the teeth thereof for preventing dislocation of the conductors from the insulation-piercing contact portions in response to the application of pulling forces on the conductors.
