Abstract:
1. A one-piece electrical connector installation tool screw ram comprising: a front end which is closed and is adapted to contact a rear end of an electrical wedge connector wedge; a rear end which is sized and shaped to connect to a hydraulic impact wrench for axial rotation of the screw ram by a hydraulic impact wrench; and a middle section comprising a threaded section which is adapted to be directly connected to a threaded aperture of an electrical connector installation tool frame to allow the screw ram to be screwed into the frame and thereby move the front end of the screw ram towards an anvil section of the frame, where the screw ram is configured such that, when the screw ram is screwed into the frame with an electrical wedge connector shell located against the anvil section of the frame and the wedge against the front end, the front end pushes the wedge towards the anvil section into the shell and connects electrical conductors to each other by wedging the wedge into the shell.
