1. A connection device for terminating electrical conduit having at least one electrical conductor therein with a knockout opening in an electrical junction box, said device comprising:

  • an elongate connector housing having a conduit receiving end, an opposed conductor egressing end and a conduit-supporting passage extending therebetween, said conduit-supporting passage defining an axial direction, said conductor egressing end including an aperture therethrough to allow said conductor to extend through said housing and into said junction box;

    conduit engaging means carried by said housing for retentively engaging said electrical conduit within said conduit-supporting passage;

    a first annular insulator positioned in said aperture to both insulate said conductor extending therethrough from said aperture and provide a first conduit end stop defining a first diameter; and

    a second annular insulator removably positioned within said first diameter of said first annular insulator to provide a second conduit end stop defining a second diameter, and wherein said second diameter is less than said first diameter.
