A method for manufacturing an electrical harness comprising a reference member and a secondary member and at least one electric wire, a protective sheath and at least two shrink sleeves comprising a reference shrink sleeve and a secondary shrink sleeve. According to the disclosure, the method comprises at least the following steps: assembling of the electric wire, the protective sheath, the two shrink sleeves, the reference member and the secondary member, the two shrink sleeves being arranged in a non-contracted state; in a reference portion of the electrical harness, reference contraction of the reference shrink sleeve; in a secondary portion of the electrical harness, angular positioning of the secondary member according to a relative angular orientation; holding of the secondary member in position; and secondary contraction of the secondary shrink sleeve.

An apparatus that melts and monitors sleeves for installation onto shielded cables. The apparatus includes a heat source for melting the sleeve, cable supports for supporting the cable during the melting process, a sensor system that is configured to measure a dimension of the sleeve during melting, and a computer that is connected to receive sensor data from the sensor system and send heater control signals to the heat source. The computer is configured to receive dimensional data from the sensor system, monitor that dimensional data by performing a dimensional analysis, and then deactivate or remove the heat source in response to dimensional analysis results indicating that the sleeve is fully melted (in the case of a solder sleeve) or only fully shrunken (in the case of a dead end sleeve) onto the cable.

The present disclosure provides an electrical connector comprising an insulating body, a terminal component, and a fixing component. The insulating body comprises a mating slot. The terminal component is disposed in the mating slot. The terminal component comprises a pair of first terminal members and a pair of second terminal members. The pair of first terminal members are disposed between the pair of second terminal members. Each of the first terminal members comprises a plurality of first elastic contacting parts and a cable connecting part. Each of the second terminal members comprises a plurality of second elastic contacting parts. The plurality of second elastic contacting parts correspondingly abut against the plurality of first elastic contacting parts. The fixing component fixes the pair of the first terminal members and the pair of the second terminal members. A cable is directly connected to each of the cable connecting parts.
