A vehicular electrical plug or connector is provided. In another aspect, an electrical connector includes a wire cable having a first end that is permanently connected to a wheeled recreational vehicle, a second end with an outlet-engageable plug thereon, and a switch allowing for a high potential or dielectric withstand test by the vehicle manufacturer in one switch condition, and then the switch allowing for normal use while detecting and/or alerting a user of an electrical ground and/or polarity problem in another switch condition. A further aspect of an electrical connector employs multiple lights on a plug, one of which alerts a user of an electrical ground and/or polarity problem, and another of which is illuminated when electricity is flowing through the plug. Another aspect of a vehicular electrical plug and method of manufacturing same, includes liquid polyurethane fed into a hole in a plug housing which then fills the otherwise open area therein to create a water-resistant seal for the plug.

An electronic power connector including a contact configured to electrically connect a power supply to a load. The electronic power connector further including a contact core configured to receive the contact, the contact core including a transformer winding wrapped around the contact core, the transformer winding configured to sense a current.

A cable assembly includes a plug receiver, a conductor interface, a metal shell encasing the conductor interface and a portion of a cable of the cable assembly, a metal foil that wraps conformably around an exterior of the metal shell, wherein the metal foil covers substantially all of the exterior of the metal shell and extends beyond the metal shell onto a cable shielding layer. The cable assembly further includes a solder layer disposed about the metal foil, wherein the solder layer bonds and electrically couples the first foil portion to itself, the second foil portion to cable shielding at the location on the plurality of conductors that is proximate to the conductor interface, and the third foil portion to the plug receiver. The cable assembly further includes an electrically insulating layer that encases the metal shell, the metal foil, and the solder layer.

An electrical conductor assembly includes a line section having a plurality of conductor wires formed of a first electrically conductive material, a contact section in which the conductor wires are compacted to form a contact unit, and a layer formed of a second electrically conductive material.

A modular electrical connector with broad-side coupled signal conductors in a right angle intermediate portion. Broadside coupling provides balanced pairs for very high frequency operation. The connector is assembled with multiple subassemblies, each of which has multiple pairs of signal conductors. The subassemblies are formed from an insulative portion having grooves in opposite sides into which the intermediate portions of signal conductors. Covers, holding the signal conductors in the grooves, establish the position of the signal conductors relative to reference conductors at the exterior of subassembly, so as to provide a controlled impedance. Lossy material is positioned between the pairs in a subassembly and/or contacts the reference conductors of the subassemblies, and the lossy material of the subassemblies is in turn connected with a conductive structure.
