A device includes a body portion and a moveable fastener extension coupled to the body portion. The moveable fastener extension is configured to be inserted in an opening of an electrical ground lug and an opening of an object to be grounded. The device further includes a handle coupled to the moveable fastener extension and configured to be operated by hand to manipulate the moveable fastener extension to secure the electrical ground lug to the object via the device.

A method of twisting a pair of wires includes the steps of arranging a first wire parallel to a second wire along a longitudinal axis, securing ends of the first and second wires, and gripping outer surfaces of central portions of the first and second wires. The inner surfaces of the central portions of the first and second wires are in contact with one another. The method further includes deflecting central portions of the first and second wires orthogonally from the longitudinal axis and rotating the central portions of the central portions of the first and second wires, thereby twisting the first and second wires about one another.

This present invention relates to an electric testing assistance tool in the form a wire nut or electrical connector. The tool is a funnel shaped flame resistant and insulating device and has a top end and a bottom end with curved walls. The top end includes a central hole to receive a testing probe of a tester device. The device has an internal metal spiral thread connected to a metal ball connector. The metal spiral thread twistable about a plurality of wire end leads. The leads extending from the bottom end opening are connected to a target wiring whose electrical parameters and continuity is to be measured using the electric testing assistance tool. The testing probe can be inserted through the central hole to contact the metal ball to measure the electric parameters and continuity of the target wiring.

This disclosure provides connectors for smart windows. A smart window may incorporate an optically switchable pane. In one aspect, a window unit includes an insulated glass unit including an optically switchable pane. A wire assembly may be attached to the edge of the insulated glass unit and may include wires in electrical communication with electrodes of the optically switchable pane. A floating connector may be attached to a distal end of the wire assembly. The floating connector may include a flange and a nose, with two holes in the flange for affixing the floating connector to a first frame. The nose may include a terminal face that present two exposed contacts of opposite polarity.
