Abstract: An electrical ground connector assembly for providing a fast, secure, moisture-resistant ground connection without using special tools. The electrical ground connector assembly includes a ground rod and a cap having an tapered rod chamber for the ground rod. The cap also includes at least one wire hole adjacent the tapered rod chamber at the bottom of the cap for receiving a ground wire. The wire hole is preferably at an angle of approximately six degrees with respect to the tapered rod chamber and merges with or intersects the rod chamber. In installation, the ground wire is inserted into the wire hole through the bottom of the cap. The upper end of the ground rod is forced into the rod cavity of the cap by any suitable manner, such as hammering the cap down over the ground rod. As the upper end of the ground rod reaches the end of the rod cavity and the ground wire extending into the cavity, it contacts and wedges itself into mechanical and electrical contact therewith.
