Enhancing connectability among conductor elements
Assemblies and methods are provided for establishing an electrical connection and enhancing connectability that utilize an electrical connector having a housing and a socket for receiving an electrical conductor having multiple conductor elements or conductor layers. A conductive fastener extends through the housing into the socket. The fastener can penetrate multiple conductor elements to establish an electrical connection among conductor elements. One or more of the conductor elements can include a cutaway segment that receives a conductive fastener to establish an electrical connection among the connector, fastener, and multiple conductor elements. A conductive shim may be disposed about one or more of the conductor elements and received within the cutaway segment, and the conductive fastener can engage the conductive shim to establish electrical contact among multiple conductor elements through the shim.

DRY MATE ROTATABLE CONNECTOR
A coupler for electrical connectors. The coupler includes a body having a first end and a second end opposite the first end. The coupler further includes a first connection interface positioned at the first end of the body, the first connection interface having a first set of conductive rings. The coupler further includes a second connection interface positioned at the second end of the body, the second connection interface having a second set of conductive rings electrically connected to the first set of conductive rings.
WIRE-TO-WIRE CONNECTOR WITH INTEGRATED WIRE STOP
A system includes a housing and a contact portion. The housing includes a first portion and a second portion, the first portion interlocking with the second portion so as to enclose a first volume and form a first wire opening within a first end of the housing and a second wire opening within a second end of the housing. The contact portion is disposed within the first volume and includes a first wire receiving portion, a first flexing beam extending from a first surface of the first wire receiving portion towards a second surface of the first wire receiving portion, a second wire receiving portion, a second flexing beam extending from a first surface of the second wire receiving portion towards a second surface of the second wire receiving portion, and a common wire stop disposed between the first wire receiving portion and the second wire receiving portion.
Compression connector
The present disclosure provides embodiments of compression-type electrical connectors used to connect one or more branch wires or conductors to one or more run wires or conductors.

INSULATION PIERCING WEDGE CONNECTOR
An electrical connector includes a clamp body having a substantially C-shaped configuration defining an interior cavity. A wedge is configured to be inserted into the clamp body. The wedge has a wedge body defining a conductor channel and a plurality of fins extending from the wedge body into the conductor channel. The plurality of fins is oriented to pierce an insulation layer of a conductor when the wedge is inserted into a clamp body.
Insulating Holder for Multi-phase Bus bar
The present invention discloses a bus bar assembly having multiple bus bars, multiple insulating holders, and a housing. Each of the insulating holders is configured to be mounted to one of the bus bars. Each of the insulating holders includes multiple ribs positioned within an interior cavity of the corresponding insulating holder, and the ribs maintain a desired air gap between each insulating holder and the corresponding bus bar mounted in the insulating holder. The housing is configured to receive each of the bus bars and the corresponding insulating holder.
