An electrosurgical device for puncturing tissue comprises an electrically conductive elongate member which is capable of force transmission from a distal portion of the electrosurgical device to a proximal portion of the electrosurgical device to thereby provide tactile feedback to a user. The proximal portion comprises a handle or hub which includes an electrical connector configured to receive, in a releasable manner, an electrically conductive component operable to be electrically coupled to an energy source.
