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.

Disclosed is a wire connector. This device comprises: a wire connection part having a cap shape of which the outer circumferential surface is serrated, and connecting, by means of rotation, stripped portions of a plurality of wires to be connected which are inserted therein in a twisted shape by using a metal insert equipped therein; and a bond-type heat shrinkage tube which is hollow and cylindrical, has one side integrally attached to the outer circumferential surface of the bottom of the wire connection part, and has the other end through which the plurality of wires to be connected are inserted such that the bond-type heat shrinkage tube shrinks when heated.

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.
