A u-shaped splice that is used to connect two solar mounting rails, includes barbs that interact with the rails, requiring more force to remove the splice from the rails than the force required to insert the splice into the rails. Wedges, located at a mid-point between ends of the splice interact with the rails, creating an interference fit between the splice and the rails.

Electrical connectors used to ground and/or electrically bond objects such as panels having metal outer and inner walls. The electrical connectors use male and female posts having associated washers that facilitate the flow of electric current between the outer and inner walls while providing a watertight seal.

A support rail and housing assembly is mountable on a housing base. The housings are equipped with electrical contact and/or functional elements which can be strung together. The support rail is mountable on the mounting base even when the housings have already been arranged on the support rail before the support rail is mounted. The support rail is secured to the mounting base by two or more mounting pins which have been placed before the support rail is mounted to the mounting base. The mounting pins and the support rail are designed to correspond to each other such that the support rail can be placed on the mounting pins and locked thereto without using a tool.

The invention relates to a direct burial ground lug. The lug is preferably constructed of a phosphor bronze material. The block may have two through holes to install two conductors, rods, cables, and the like. Stainless steel threaded screws are used to hold the rod and ground conductor in a stable condition. The threaded screws insert into threaded holes positioned perpendicular to the through holes. The direct burial ground lug allows the ground rod and ground conductor to be connected for a continuous grounding system.

A connection structure, of a short bar forming a conductive path and a land on a printed circuit board, in which the short bar includes a plate portion having a flat plate shape and a protrusion protruding in a stepped shape from a surface of the plate portion, the protrusion is threadably fastened to the printed circuit board by a screw inserted into a land-side through hole formed through the land, from an opposite side of the printed circuit board with respect to the protrusion, in a state where a flat surface portion formed, at a position spaced apart from the surface of the plate portion, on an outer surface of the protrusion is in close contact with the land.

The present disclosure relates to a conduit coupler including a hub and a lock nut that thread on the hub. In one example, the lock nut includes a ground connection location including a linear wire retention slot. The ground wire can be retained in the linear wire retention slot by a grounding bracket secured at the ground connection location by a grounding screw. The grounding bracket can be captive relative to the grounding screw. The grounding bracket can include integrated spring washer functionality. The ground connection location can be provided on a tower of the lock nut.

An electrical grounding clamp is provided, wherein the clamp includes a U-bolt, an inner clamp part connected to the U-bolt to clamp a floor support between the inner clamp part and the U-bolt and an outer clamp part connected to the U-bolt to clamp a conductor between the inner clamp part and the outer clamp part, wherein at least one of the inner clamp part and the outer clamp part is pivotable about one leg of the U-bolt to releasably engage the other leg of the U-bolt.
