HIGH VOLTAGE WIRE HARNESS HAVING AN INLINE DISCONNECT
A wire harness for a charging inlet of a vehicle includes first and second high voltage wires having first and second conductors. An inline disconnect electrically connects the first and second conductors and is configured to allow the conductors to be disconnected. The inline disconnect includes a housing having a central cavity, a first chamber at a first end that receives the first high voltage wire, and a second chamber open to the central cavity at a second end that receives the second high voltage wire. First and second disconnect contacts terminated to the conductors are received in the central cavity. A connecting element couples the first and second disconnect contacts and is removable from the disconnect contacts to allow disconnection of the first and second disconnect contacts to electrically separate the first and second high voltage wires.
Cable grounding assembly for telecommunications enclosure
Grounding assemblies for cables entering telecommunications enclosures. The grounding assemblies include a cable fixation subassembly and a grounding subassembly that are electrically coupled together to ground strength members and a conductive shield of a cable. The cable fixation subassembly can fixate the cable such that the strength members lie in a plane that is at a non-zero angle relative to each of a horizontal reference plane and a vertical reference plane.
SEAL STRUCTURE FOR MULTICORE CABLE, AND SEAL MEMBER
A seal structure that includes: a multicore cable in which first to fourth electrical wires are enveloped by a sheath, the electrical wires extending out from an end portion of the sheath; a rubber plug through which the electrical wires pass, the rubber plug being fitted around the end portion of the sheath; a cap that is fitted around the rubber and presses the rubber plug inward; and a crimping member that is arranged adjacent to the rubber plug and is crimped around the sheath. The crimping member has a locking piece and a mating portion, and the cap has an extending piece and a receiving recession portion. Relative positions of the crimping member and the rubber plug are held by the mating portion of the locking piece and the receiving recession portion of the extending piece locking together.

Assembly and method for sealing a bundle of wires
A structure for creating a sealed wire bundle includes a first adhesive material in the form of a circular or semi-circular shape. The first adhesive material has a first outer wall with first spoke arms extending inward from the first outer wall. The first adhesive material has a first viscosity. First wire receiving spaces are provided between the first spoke arms. Wires are positioned in the first wire receiving spaces. As heat is applied to the adhesive structure, the adhesive structure flows to fill voids between the plurality of wires to thereby seal the wires.

CABLE ATTACHMENT DEVICE
A cable attachment device for sealing and retaining a communications cable entering a telecommunications closure through an opening defined in the closure is disclosed, the device comprising: a housing having a passage through which the communications cable extends, the housing having a first portion and a second portion; wherein the first portion of the housing is configured to receive a protective tube of the telecommunications cable; wherein the second portion of the housing is configured to engage with the closure; a first seal configured to form a seal between the device and the closure; a second seal configured to form a seal between the interior of the device and the protective tube; a third seal configured to seal between the communications cable and the interior of the device; a first retaining arrangement configured to couple the device to the closure; a second retaining arrangement configured to hold the tube relative to the device; and a third retaining arrangement configured to fix the telecommunications cable relative to the device.
INJECTION ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR
A cable accessory for injecting fluid into a cable. The accessory has first and second ends configured to be coupled to the cable and an external cable accessory, respectively. The accessory has an injection port configured to introduce the fluid to a stranded conductor of the cable. The accessory may include a body and conductive rod. The body defines a through-channel configured to receive the conductor. The rod has a first portion that extends outwardly from the second end to be received inside the external cable accessory and to form an electrical connection therewith. The rod has a second portion configured to be coupled to the conductor and form an electrical connection therewith. The second portion (with the conductor coupled thereto) is positionable inside the through-channel with the first portion extending outward from the second end. The fluid is injectable into the conductor through injection port, which extends into the through-channel.
Cable Pass Through System
A cable pass through system for running one or more cables through a roof and a ceiling can comprise a cap having an inner surface and an outer surface having a thickness which can create a shell. The cap can cover and attach to a base. The seals can be attached to the base and the cap forming a seal around the cable. A gasket can be placed between the base and the roof creating a seal between the roof and the base. A backing plate can be placed on the ceiling and is removably attached to the base by one or more fasteners. The cap and the base can further comprise a recess for the one or more seals and a seal can be placed in the recess in the base wherein when pushed together the two seals create a watertight seal against the cable.
