An improved H-tap compression connector is crimp- connected to a pair of electrical conductors by dies of a crimping tool. The connector includes a connector body having a generalry H-shaped configuration defining a pair of conductor nests opening in 'opposite directions from a transverse axis. The connector includes first and second pairs of spaced-apart crimpable sidewalls extending in opposite directions from the transverse axis. Each pair of sidewalls includes a first sidewall having an inwardly curved distal extent defining a die engagement location and a second sidewall having a die engagement location at the end thereof. The die engagement locations of each of the sidewalls of each pair are located substantially equidistant from the transverse axis. The die engagement location of the curved distal extent of the one sidewall is constructed to have a radius of curvature which is substantially identical to the radius of curvature of the die to prevent rotation of the connector within the dies during crimping.
