Abstract of the Disclosure An insulation displacement connector for interconnecting a variable number of wires in a stacked, in-line configuration. The connector includes a hollow body for receiving the wires, a metallic contact element located within the body, and a cover. In the primary embodiment, the body has front and rear walls each having three holes in a stacked, nonlinear arrangement. The stacking feature provides a more compact connector. All but two of the holes are obstructed by rupturable membranes which seal unused holes and thus provide greater flexibility with regard to the number of wires which may be reliably interconnected. The contact element includes shoulder contacts for receiving the upper wires, and leg contacts which extend beyond the shoulder contacts for receiving the lower wires. The cover advantageously has a plunger which forces sealant material throughout the body, and further has strain relief fingers and latching clips.
