    an entry body defining an interior space, said entry body open on each end, a first end of said entry body having a mating area cooperating with the mating area of the clamp nut;

    a ferrule having a truncated conical exterior surface and a stepped interior surface, said ferrule centrally disposed along a common longitudinal axis within said clamp nut interior space, an outside surface of said ferrule abutting an end portion of said entry body;

    a mandrel centrally disposed within said ferrule along a common longitudinal axis, said mandrel engaging a first end of said ferrule;

    a closing collar centrally disposed about a common longitudinal axis with said clamp nut, a first end of said closing collar engaging a first end of said mandrel;

    a pin terminal centrally disposed along a common longitudinal axis within said entry body, a first end of said pin terminal extending beyond a second end of said entry body, said pin terminal having a bore partially disposed longitudinally therein at a second end, said pin terminal bore having a plurality of serrations on an interior surface adjacent said bore second end;

    a support insulator centrally disposed along a common longitudinal axis within a second end of said entry body, said support insulator having a bore centrally disposed therethrough for receiving said pin terminal; and
