A connector includes a connector housing and a shield shell. A terminal electrically connected to an end part of a wire is arranged inside the connector housing. The connector housing includes an inserting portion to be inserted into a mounting hole provided in a conductive case for accommodating an inverter and an outer arrangement portion integral with the inserting portion and to be arranged outside the case. The shield shell includes a tubular covering portion for covering an outer periphery of the outer arrangement portion and is electrically connected to the case. A shield-side sealing member seals between an outer-peripheral surface of the outer arrangement portion and an inner-peripheral surface of the covering portion. The outer-peripheral surface of the outer arrangement portion has a second intrusion suppressing groove provided over the entire outer periphery of the outer arrangement portion between the shield-side sealing member and the inserting portion.

An assembly for providing access to an opening in a table includes an electrical module including a support panel carrying one or more electrical power sockets and/or data ports and a cable carrying electrical power and/or data wires connectable to the sockets/ports. The assembly further includes an access module that includes a grommet mountable to the table within the opening. The grommet including a flange defining a pair of opposing channels configured to slidably receive the support panel therein so that the one or more sockets/ports are accessible through the grommet when the access module is mounted to the table.

A surface mount electrical connector and methods of making and using a surface mount electrical connector. The connector includes a housing and a contact subassembly received in the housing. The contact subassembly includes interface contacts, board termination contacts, and an internal circuit board. The interface contacts and the board termination contacts are mounted to the internal circuit board to electrically connect the interface contacts and the board termination contacts through the internal circuit board. Each of surface mount tail ends of the board termination contacts has a bent portion that defines a mounting surface configured to be surface mounted to a mounting face of a main circuit board, to establish an electrical connection between the board termination contacts and the main circuit board.

A modular power distribution system, comprising a client device configured to be inserted into a host device, and having a series of independently configurable electrical connections and predetermined electrical connections connecting the host device, the client device, and a cable to deliver power from the cable to a peripheral of the client. A modular power distribution system, comprising a host device having first and second compartments, the second compartment being dimensioned to automatically align the client electrical coupler with the host electrical coupler and form a protective barrier while the client electrical coupler is in contact with the host electrical coupler. A modular power distribution system comprising a multi-gang host device and a client assembly, and having a series of independently configurable electrical connections and predetermined electrical connections connecting the multi-gang host device, the client assembly, and a cable(s) to deliver power from the cable the client assembly.

A modular electrical wiring assembly allowing for quick installation and replacement of outlets, switches, and the like includes a bracket, a receptacle, and an interface element. The bracket is mountable to a structural element so that the bracket is recessed from an outer surface of the structural element. The receptacle is selectively mountable to the bracket and is operationally engageable to an electrical circuit. An interface element is selectively mountable to the receptacle so that the interface element is operationally engaged to the electrical circuit. The interface element, such as an outlet, a switch, and the like, can be readily installed and replaced.

An electrical arrangement on an aircraft fuselage has a fuselage component, an electrical consumer and a conductive electrical connection element. The connection element extends outwardly through an opening in the fuselage component and may have a bearing section on an inside or outside of the fuselage component that is arranged so as to tap or feed a voltage pole. The electrical connection element is electrically insulated from the opening and the fuselage component and is able to be connected to a voltage supply arranged on the inside. The electrical consumer is arranged on the outside of the fuselage component and is electrically connected to that part of the connection element projecting towards the outside of the fuselage.
