An easily removable ground rod connector system for attaching grounding wires to a ground rod, which can be easily added to or removed from the ground rod even after the ground rod has been inserted into the ground and ultimately provides a safe and reliable connection and corrects several existing problems with current connectors.

A plate-shaped ground plate formed from a copper material, the ground plate includes: an outline frame; a plurality of horizontal ribs connecting the left and right inner peripheral surfaces of the outline frame and distanced from one another in the vertical direction; vertical ribs connecting between the outline frame and the horizontal ribs and between the plurality of horizontal ribs, respectively; and needle-shaped protrusions in the form of a branch which protrude outward on the outer peripheral surfaces of the horizontal ribs.

Junction boxes are disclosed relating to commercial and residential wiring that include a container and multiple push in locking electrical connectors. The push in locking electrical connectors are arranged facing the exterior of the box such that the box is operable without being opened and such that the individual conductors of multiconductor wires may be conveniently wired to separate sets of push in locking electrical connectors electrically joining the multiconductor wires.

An electrical connector includes an insulating body and a first terminal module. The first terminal module includes a first insulating portion and a number of first terminals. The first terminals include a number of pairs of first signal terminals and a number of first ground terminals. The first insulating portion has a first side surface and a second side surface. The electrical connector includes a first metal shield mounted to the second side surface. The first metal shield is located between the second side surface and the insulating body. The first metal shield is in contact with the first ground terminals. The present disclosure increases the shielding area and improves the quality of signal transmission. The present disclosure also relates to an electrical connector assembly and an electrical connector module including the above-mentioned electrical connector.

This invention is a connecting device for earth grounding aircraft and aerospace equipment. The connector assembly has two parts, an upper and lower. The upper part of the connector provides a receptacle to secure an aerospace chassis ground wire. An internal magnet holds the upper part to the lower part. The lower part is secured in the ground and is flush with the surrounding surface. It is subterraneously connected to a ground rod. Upon disconnection and removal of the upper part, the lower part stays in place and provides a smooth and unencumbered surface.

A method of manufacturing a grounding connection is disclosed that comprises assembling a non-ferrous grounding connector to a non-ferrous part, and melting brazing material between the grounding connector and the part to secure the grounding connector to the part. The step of assembling the connector to the part may be performed by clinching the connector to the part. The ground connector may comprise a nut secured to the vehicle body by a clinch joint and a deposit of braze metal applied to the nut at the location of the clinch joint. Alternatively, the ground connector for a vehicle body may comprise a nut defining an opening for receiving a fastener and a deposit of brazing material attaching the nut to the vehicle body.
