Electrical connector system
An electrical connector system including a male connector having a male terminal that defines a first blade longitudinally projecting from the male terminal and a second blade longitudinally projecting from the same male terminal. A first blade width is less than a second blade width and a first blade length is less than a second blade length. The male terminal further defines a pair of crimp wings configured to attach the male terminal to a wire cable. The system further includes a female connector having a first female terminal configured to receive the first blade and a second female terminal configured to receive the second blade, thereby electrically interconnecting the first female terminal, the second female terminal, and the wire cable.
INTERMEDIATE GROUND FOR VEHICLES
An intermediate ground is provided in a vehicle. The intermediate ground can be located between one or more antennas and one or more processing systems. The intermediate ground can include a vehicle frame member (e.g., part of an A-pillar) and a ground bracket attached to the vehicle frame member. The ground bracket can include a body made of a conductive material. The body can include a first end region and a second end region opposite to the first end region. The first end region can include a frame engaging portion. At least a portion of the frame engaging portion can directly contact the vehicle frame member. The second end region being configured to support a plurality of electrical connectors thereon. The body can include an anti-rotation tab extending from the frame engaging portion. The anti-rotation tab can engage the vehicle frame member.
PRESSURE BAR FOR CONNECTORS
An electrical connector includes a split bolt, a fastener component, and a pressure bar. The split bolt includes a base, a first upright member, a second upright member, and a conductor receiving channel defined between the first and second upright members. The fastener component has a top surface, a bottom surface, and an opening receiving the first and second upright members. The pressure bar has a bottom section, a first leg, and a second leg. The pressure bar is movably received in the conductor receiving channel.
Plug-on neutral device and kit
A plug-on neutral (PON) device includes a housing that defines a phase cooperation portion configured to physically cooperate with phase buses of a bus assembly. The phase cooperation portion is configured to be electrically isolated from the phase buses and stabilize the PON device when installed on the bus assembly. A neutral cooperation portion is configured to physically cooperate with the neutral bus and to physically stabilize the PON device when installed. An electrical connector disposed at the neutral cooperation portion is configured to electrically connect to the neutral bus at an external end and to electrically connect to a conductive current path at its internal end. A lug assembly has one or more conductive terminal lugs, each terminal lug configured to receive current from an external neutral source via an aperture in the lug end of the housing and to electrically connect to the current path.
TERMINAL BLOCK
A terminal block assembly is provided, comprising a plurality of terminal blocks mounted on a common horizontal support member, including a supply terminal block connected with a voltage source, and a plurality of distribution terminal blocks connected with a plurality of loads, respectively, characterized in that the length and height dimensions of the terminal blocks are the same, but the width of the supply terminal block is greater than that of the distribution terminal blocks, and that the supply conductor contact arrangements of the supply terminal block are designed for connection with a supply conductor having a relatively large cross-sectional area, while the distribution conductor contact arrangements of the distribution terminal blocks are designed for connection with distribution conductors having a relatively small cross-sectional area. A conductive comb member extends transversely across the assembly to interconnect the electrical circuitry contained within the terminal block housings.
