What are they used for?


These are used in wiring buildings where wire-eating rats are common.
The rats see the connectors, and assume no wires are present.


That doesn't make any sense because the wires would be visible.

Wouldn't you have to use nonwiring *wire* along with the nonwiring
wire connectors to fool the rats?

That raises the bigger question:

Are they "nonwiring wire" connectors or nonwiring "wire connectors"?
