A rope swinging device includes a strap attached to an optional handgrip, and a clamp attached to the strap. The clamp may be attached to a rope that is swung by a user.

The present disclosure describes a rigging assembly, comprising a plurality of rig attachment members, each rig attachment member having a top, a bottom, and at least two side walls, wherein each of the at least two side walls comprise an aperture; a cable serially inserted through each of the apertures of the rig attachment members; and at least one tension member having one end coupled to the cable and having an opposite end secured to one of the rig attachment members, wherein the plurality of rig attachment members are held by the cable in tension exerted by the at least one tension member. A rigging and fall protection system are also described.

A clamping device of a clamping unit for at least one cable has a clamping member with at least one receptacle for the at least one cable, wherein a cross section of the at least one receptacle is adjustable, and has at least one adjustment element that is embodied in such a way so that it takes effect on the clamping member so that the cross section of the at least one receptacle is adjusted. The at least one adjustment element is embodied as a preloadable element. A clamping unit has at least one clamping device and a housing surrounding the clamping device.

A helical jumper connector includes a helical support member configured to support a wire. The helical support member includes a first leg having a first helical winding and a second leg having a second helical winding that defines a second axial opening. The first axial opening and the second axial opening are coaxial with the wire when the first helical winding and the second helical winding are wrapped around the wire and cooperatively engage with one another to support the wire. A jumper casting is configured to receive the helical support member. The helical support member and the jumper casting are electrically conductive such that the helical jumper connector forms an electrically conductive pathway to carry electrical current from the wire. A method of making a helical jumper connector assembly includes applying a compression force to a helical jumper connector comprising a helical support member received in a jumper casting.
