A wire connection accessory is disclosed that includes a mounting structure formed thereon configured to mate with an existing mounting feature provided on a “host” electrical switching component or “host” operator switch present within an electrical enclosure/assembly is disclosed. The wire connection accessory comprises a component whose mechanical and electrical state does not change response to functioning of the host device to which it is mounted. The host electrical switching component or operator switch includes a first mounting feature formed on an external surface thereof so as to serve as a host device. The wire connection accessory includes a second mounting feature mateable with the first mounting feature to selectively affix the wire connection accessory to the host device.

A hermetic terminal includes a metal outer ring made of a low resistance conductor having a through hole, a lead made of a low resistance conductor inserted in the through hole of the metal outer ring, and an insulating material made of high expansion glass for sealing the metal outer ring and the lead.

Method, modules and a system formed by connecting the modules for controlling payloads are disclosed. An activation signal is propagated in the system from a module to the modules connected to it. Upon receiving an activation signal, the module (after a pre-set or random delay) activates a payload associated with it, and transmits the activation signal (after another pre-set or random delay) to one or more modules connected to it. The system is initiated by a master module including a user activated switch producing the activation signal. The activation signal can be propagated in the system in one direction from the master to the last module, or carried bi-directionally allowing two way propagation, using a module which revert the direction of the activation signal propagation direction. A module may be individually powered by an internal power source such as a battery, or connected to external power source such as AC power. The system may use remote powering wherein few or all of the modules are powered from the same power source connected to the system in a single point. The power may be carried over dedicated wires or concurrently with the conductors carrying the activation signal. The payload may be a visual or an audible signaling device, and can be integrated within a module or external to it. The payload may be powered by a module or using a dedicated power source, and can involve randomness associated with its activation such as the delay, payload control or payload activation.

A connector includes an insulation housing formed with a plurality of terminal slots, and a plurality of terminals inserted into the plurality of terminal slots. Each of the plurality of terminals has a pin protruding from a bottom of the insulation housing for insertion into a terminal hole in a circuit board. At least one latch is formed on the insulation housing for insertion and locking into a latch hole defined in the circuit board.

A bolt terminal mounted on a guide rail is provided. The bolt terminal comprises a housing (1), an integral nut (2), a screw (3), a connection component (4), and a wiring metal surface (5); one end of the screw is provided in the housing, the other end of the screw is located outside the housing, and the screw located outside the housing is to be connected to the integral nut fitted therewith; the wiring metal surface is provided on the interface between the screw and the housing; and the housing is to be connected to the guide rail via the connection component. The bolt terminal increases the requirement for powering the wirings, and the bolt terminal can be removed from the guide rail only by using a conventional screwdriver to lightly tap on a removal port. The screw is integrally connected to the housing by injection molding and thus there is no risk of the screw falling off, enabling higher reliability.
