Claim:
An electrical wire organizer for facilitating the connection of a plurality of wires disposed within an electrical cable to a series of discrete electrical contacts arranged in a closely spaced relation comprising: a cable-receiving cuff configured to frictionally secure the electrical cable; and a wire comb having a plurality of wire receiving channels defined therein, the wire receiving channels configured to position respective ones of the plurality of wires relative to a corresponding electrical contact and each wire receiving channel including an opening through a peripheral side such that a respective wire may be pressed laterally through the opening and wherein each opening is configured with a reduced width with respect to a portion of the corresponding wire receiving channel that is more distant from the peripheral side than the opening, at least one of the plurality of wire receiving channels configured to form a friction fit with an insulating portion of one of the plurality of wires when such wire is inserted therethrough, and wherein each of the wire receiving channels includes a notch opposite the opening to facilitate flexing of the wire receiving channel.
