Electrical Connectors

What is a Connector?

A connector is an electromechanical device used to join two electrical parts together, generally this would be connecting a cable to a system or cable to another cable within an electrical circuit. There are many different types of connectors that can accomplish this. They can be used to connect power, data and fibre and can come in different shapes, sizes and materials. They can also be waterproof, dustproof and heat proof to various industry ratings. Our sales team is ready to help you with any queries.
