A stripping and contact device for an insulation displacement connector is provided. The device has a body which has a cavity therein sized to receive an unstripped end of insulated electrical cable. A lid is pivotally connected to a body and moves around an axis of rotation between and open position and a closed position. Plural metallic contact plates, including a hot contact plate, a neutral contact plate, and at least one ground contact plate, are spaced apart and attached to the lid. When the lid is in open position the contact plates do not extend within said cavity and when the lid in a closed position the contact plates do extend within said cavity. A pair of insulating wedges is provided. A first wedge is juxtaposed between said hot contact plate and a ground contact plate. A second wedge is juxtaposed between a ground contact plate and a neutral contact plate. Angled surfaces on the wedges perform multiple functions during a closing operation of the device.
