Zusammenfassung:Environmentally protected electrical connectors and methods for forming environmentally protected connections are disclosed. The connector includes a holding mechanism (302) to secure the connector to an electrical conductor (5A), where the holding mechanism is accessible through an access opening and access passage (334A). Access sealant (388) is used to seal the access passage to provide protection from moisture and other environmental conditions. The access opening, access passage, and access sealant are adapted to allow insertion of a tool (9) to operate the holding mechanism.
