The terminal metal fitting is attached to an end of each armor wire. The support is disposed on a tip side of the core and supports a plurality of the terminal metal fittings. The support includes a base plate and a fixing member. The base plate is provided with a first through hole into which the core is inserted, and second through holes which are provided on an outer circumference of the first through hole and into each of which a corresponding one of the terminal metal fittings is inserted. The fixing member fixes each terminal metal fitting to the base plate.

The present disclosure relates to a means for vertically suspending a single lighting element or a plurality of lighting elements within a rail system using one or a plurality of wedge pin suspension systems that employ a wedge pin securing device and a receptive collar assembly to grip and secure in place one or a plurality of electrical cables having at least two insulated conductive electrical leads to provide both vertical support and electrical power to the suspended lighting elements. The present disclosure further relates to a manually adjustable and reservable wedge pin securing device configured for easy manipulation, yet providing a secure vertical suspension means using a lighting system's own electrical cable for support based on combined frictional and gravitational forces.

The disclosure relates to a shielded Y-shaped splice connector having a housing that includes a lower body, an upper cover, and three openings arranged to receive three cable fixing devices on the housing. The periphery of the lower body and the periphery of the upper cover are each formed of a flat surface arranged to form the contact surface of the lower body and the upper cover when the housing is assembled.

A cable gland and methods for earthing, grounding, bonding, and electromagnetic capability with armored, metal-clad, and metallic-sheathed cable types. The cable gland comprises a gland body, a plurality of extensions, an elastomer seal, a compression member configured to rotate the plurality of extensions towards to the elastomer seal, and an earthing insert mounted in the gland body configured to electrically connect a cable to a neutral and/or grounded conductor. The cable gland is configured to provide an air-tight seal between the exterior of the cable and the elastomer seal through rotation of the plurality of extension upon the elastomer seal. The cable gland may include an o-ring and nut to secure the cable gland to a planar body. The earthing insert comprises a grounding spring in electrical communication with a metallic portion of the cable and a neutral and/or grounded conductor.

A cable configuration tool includes an attachment base, a first cable retainer, a second cable retainer, and a cable guide. The attachment base includes an attachment point for mounting to an edge of an enclosure and an arm for mounting the first cable retainer, the second cable retainer, and the cable guide. A first aperture of the first cable retainer, a second aperture of the second cable retainer, and a third aperture of the cable guide are each configured to accept the arm of the attachment base, where the first cable retainer, the second cable retainer, and the cable guide are slidable along the arm. One or more cables for creation of a cable harness are placeable along an outer edge of the cable guide, where the cable guide defines a bend radius for the one or more cables of the cable harness.

A backshell is configured to be connected to an electrical connector. The backshell includes a backshell body configured to receive a cable connectable with the electrical connector. The backshell also includes a fixed tail portion extending from the backshell body. The fixed tail portion provides a plurality of different connection positions spaced along a curved exit path extending from the backshell body. A fastening component can be connected to the fixed tail portion to retain the cable to the fixed tail portion at one of the plurality of different connection positions. The connection positions include fastening component engagement means, configured to retain the fastening component in position longitudinally with respect to the curved exit path. Connection of the fastening component at the different respective connection positions guides the cable from the fixed tail portion at different respective exit angles.

A strain relief clamp (100), which has a first body part (110) and a second body part (120) creating a passage (160) for clamping cables upon the two body parts securely attached together by using locking mechanisms (105,106). An individual locking mechanism (105) has a first plurality of teeth (115) protruded from the first body part (110), and a spring strip (130) formed with a second plurality of teeth (135). The second plurality of teeth (135) faces and engages with the first plurality of teeth (115) to lock the individual locking mechanism (105). The spring strip (130) is bendable, allowing a user to bend the spring strip (130) and subsequently cause the second plurality of teeth (135) to disengage from the first plurality of teeth (115) to release the individual locking mechanism (105). Tool-free release of the cables is achieved, offering the user convenience.
