The invention relates to a method for sealing a contact point region comprising at least one contact point at an electrical line connection, wherein the line connection comprises at least one electrical line and at least one conductive element electrically connected thereto. The method starts by arranging a shrink tube on the outer circumference of the contact point region, in a first region extending over the contact point region on both sides in the longitudinal direction. This is followed by heating the shrink tube to shrinking temperature. During the heating of the shrink tube, an inductive heating of the electrical conductor is additionally performed, at least in the contact point region, and so hotmelt adhesive arranged inside the shrink tube and/or on the outer circumference of the contact point region is heated to its melting temperature. The invention also relates to a device for sealing a contact point region and to a sealing at such a region.

A connector assembly of two low temperature superconducting cable terminals and manufacturing method thereof. A connector assembly comprises a copper layer having one side which is conducted with one low temperature superconducting cable and another side which is conducted with another low temperature superconducting cable, two welding material layers, wherein each the welding material layer is provided between the copper layer and either of the two low temperature superconducting cable, and a clip mechanism covered the outer surface of either of the low temperature superconducting cable to tightly clamp the copper layer, the two welding material layers and the two low temperature superconducting cable form the inside to the outside of the connector assembly. The connector assembly of the present invention has compact structure. The saddle-shaped copper block is compressed by a clamp mechanism is use to weld with two low temperature superconducting terminals.

A connector of an electrical connection assembly includes terminals (20) corresponding respectively to wires (10) arranged in a wire arrangement direction, an insulating housing and connecting members (70) applied to the terminals (20). Each terminal (20) has a wire connection surface (27a). The connecting member (70) is made of solder and is fixed to the wire connection surface (27a) to electrically connect a conductor (12) of the wire (10) and the wire connection surface (27a). A surface of the connecting member (70) has a convex-concave shape including restricting portions (73, 74) for restricting displacement of the wire (10) with respect to the wire connection surface (27a) in the wire arrangement direction, thereby ensuring high connection reliability by stabilizing relative positions of the wires and terminals in the connector.
