A connector for connecting electrical conductors and including first and second conductor-containing bodies configured to sealingly connect the conductors when the first and second body are matingly joined. A passageway is formed to accept a pin when the first and second body are matingly joined so that the pin, which is a different color than the first and second body, is readily observable in position to confirm that the first and retains the first and second body in mating engagement and so that the pin, which is a different second body are matingly joined.

[ Having thus described the invention, I claim:] [1.]1. A connector for connecting a first cable electrical conductor and a second cable electrical conductor consisting essentially of:a) a first conductor-containing body formed of a resilient material and having a receptacle opening having an inside and a sidewall, a first seal-enhancing fitting positioned around the inside of the receptacle opening and at least one first electrical conductor connector fitting configured to matingly engage a second electrical conductor connector fitting the first electrical conductor connector being in electrical contact with the first cable electrical conductor;b) a second conductor-containing body formed of a resilient material and having an extended portion, formed to matingly engage the receptacle opening and having an outside and a second seal-enhancing fitting positioned around the outside of the extended portion the first seal-enhancing fitting and the second seal-enhancing fitting being configured for watertight sealing engagement when the first conductor-containing body and the second conductor-containing body are placed in mating engagement and said second electrical conductor connector fitting is configured to matingly engage at least said first electrical conductor connector fitting the second electrical conductor connector being in electrical contact with the second cable electrical conductor;c) an alignment openings comprising a first opening through the sidewall of the receptacle opening and a second opening in the extended portion so that the first opening and the second opening are in alignment when the extended portion is positioned in watertight mating engagement with the receptacle opening with at least said one first electrical conductor connector fitting in mating engagement with at least said second electrical conductor connector fitting; and,d) a removable pin configured to fit in the alignment opening when the first opening and the second opening are in alignment to retain the extended portion in mating engagement with the receptacle opening.
