In various representative aspects, an assembly for connecting and electrically bonding two solar panel rail guides. More specifically, the assembly provides a splice that slides within two solar panel rail guides and includes an elongated spring element that is inserted into an elongated slot in the splice and enables the two solar panel rail guides to be electrically bonded together when various bonding techniques are used to allow portions of the spring to penetrate the oxidation layers of the inner surfaces of the rail guides as they are joined together. Another embodiment that utilizes a bonding element that is inserted into an elongated slot of a splice and also enables two solar panel rail guides to be electrically bonded when the rail guides are joined.

A rotary plug electrical connector includes a plug and a socket, both of which include power contacts and signal contacts. The plug is rotatable within the socket between operable and inoperable positions. The power contacts of the socket include opposed surfaces which are engaged by resilient blade power contacts of the plug. The signal contact of the socket preferably includes a pair of contacts, and the signal contact of the plug preferably is a bridge contact that engages the socket signal contacts in the operable position and disengages the socket signal contacts in the inoperable position. When the signal contacts are disengaged, no power is transferred by the connector.

A single element electrical connector includes a single conductive contact element formed into a cage structure having a wire insert end and a wire contact end along a longitudinal centerline axis of the connector. The cage structure defines an upper pick-up surface having a surface area suitable for placement of a suction nozzle of a vacuum transfer device, as well as a pair of contact tines biased towards the centerline axis to define a contact pinch point for an exposed core of a wire inserted into the connector. A contact surface is defined by a member of the cage structure for electrical mating contact with a respective contact element on a component on which the connector is mounted.

Connector (1) comprising at least one female part (2) and at least one male part (3) engaging in the female part, and locking means (4) preventing any extraction of the male part from the female part, characterized in that the locking means comprise at least one removable locking part (4) arranged as an interface between the male part (3) and the female part (2), and the male and female parts comprise means of retention (24, 35) by mutual cooperation, the mutual disengaging of the retention means being rendered possible only after the withdrawal of the locking part.

A connector assembly for an electrical connection, the connector assembly includes a plug and a socket. The plug includes a connector and a frame. The connector has a solid core conductor, the solid core conductor has an end portion. The frame surrounds the solid core conductor except for the end portion. The end portion is deformed to overlap the frame. The socket includes a socket conductor and a receiving portion into which the plug engages. The end portion directly contacts the socket conductor to form an electrical contact and causes the frame to deflect and provide a bias to force the end portion and the socket conductor into direct contact with one another.

A connector includes a base member and a contact connected to a connection object, a first surface of the base member making contact with a bottom surface of a sheet-like conductive member, the contact being fixed to the base member by a deformed portion of the projection in a state where a root portion of the projection is accommodated in a projection accommodating portion with the sheet-like conductive member being sandwiched therebetween, an inner peripheral surface of the projection accommodating portion making contact with a flexible conductor of the sheet-like conductive member, whereby the connection object is electrically connected to the flexible conductor via the contact.

A socket, connectable to a plug-in device, wherein the plug-in device is a bushing and/or a plug-in cable termination, is described. The socket includes a current conduction path and a field control unit. The field control unit includes a layer arrangement with at least three conductive layers arranged around the current conduction path and separated by an insulating material

A magnetic connector for connecting an electrical unit to an electrical consumer unit includes at least one magnet, a conductive metal part secured to this magnet, a connecting cable fixed to the conductive metal part, and a cap made of plastic material overmoulded on the connecting cable, the conductive metal part and the magnet, except for a contact surface of the magnet intended to make contact with a metal part of the electrical consumer unit.

A cable termination that enables the attachment of SMA connectors to controlled-impedance cables with a conductive foil wrap shield; for the separate ferrule embodiment, the sheath is stripped back on the cable, exposing the foil shield surrounding the dielectric; a ferrule is slid or clamped over the foil shield and bonded; the face of the ferrule is dressed so that the foil shield and dielectric are flush with the ferrule face and the signal conductor protrudes from the face this cable subassembly is installed in the boss of a housing that prevents movement of the ferrules relative to each other and so that each ferrule face is aligned with an opening in the boss through which an SMA connector barrel is attached to the ferrule a cover secures the cable subassembly in the housing.

A device that is capable of creating multiple connections on a grounding point in a single airport hangar, as well as reducing the likelihood of there being a tripping hazard over the connected cables, while also assisting in preventing damage to cable connections which may result from vehicles being driven inside an airport hangar.
