A grounding clamp for connecting a cable to an electrical ground includes first and second clamping elements, which tightly abut against one another in an assembled state so that the cable is clampable therebetween. A contact is arranged on the first clamping element to contact a conductive section of the cable in the assembled state. An opening extending through the clamping elements is configured such that a fastener is guidable therethrough and the grounding clamp is connectable to the ground using the fastener. Mutually complementary first and second locking means are also provided. The first locking means are arranged on two opposite sides of the first clamping element and the second locking means are arranged on two opposite sides of the second clamping element. In the assembled state, the locking means are engaged with one another and are arranged on both sides along the cable.

A grounding clamp uses a spring driving a piston mounted movable jaw as a safety lockout. The movable jaw and a fixed jaw, which may include teeth, form a conductor clamp. The ground clamp mounts on the end of a hot stick to provide for electrically insulated remote operation of the ground clamp by a lineman holding the hot stick and pulling on, or releasing, a lever arm on the hot stick. The system provides increased safety for the lineman as the spring providing the spring loading of the clamp has a high spring force to overcome, thus providing the lockout. The lever arm on the hot stick tool provides mechanical advantage to overcome the spring force and thus release the lockout. The lineman cannot usefully operate the ground clamp manually without the hot stick due to spring force lockout.

A ground bar comprising a planar body having a wedge shape in that a width of a top end of the planar body is greater than a width of a bottom end of the planar body. The planar body is constructed of an electrically-conductive material. A plurality of upper hole pairs are defined in the planar body. Each of the first hole pairs is adapted to have a corresponding electrical wire to be grounded selectively affixed thereto.

A shield member (10) disclosed herein includes a flexible conductor (12) that is electrically conductive and covers the outer surface of at least one covered wire (W); at least one ground conductor (20) that electrically connects the flexible conductor (12) to a body ground (G); an auxiliary shield conductor (30) that covers the outer surface of the ground conductor (20); and an auxiliary ground conductor (35) that electrically connects the auxiliary shield conductor (30) to the body ground (G).

A cable shield connecting assembly is arranged to secure and ground a cable to the housing of an electrical device. The cable includes a cable jacket and braided shielding extending from an end portion of the cable jacket. The cable shield connecting assembly includes: a mounting plate having a cavity and an aperture arranged on a bottom side of the cavity; and a grommet having an inner diameter inside which the end portion of the cable jacket is fitted, and upper and lower portions extending on both sides of an edge of the aperture of the mounting plate. The upper portion of the grommet is fitted inside the cavity. The cable shield connecting assembly further includes a clamp pressed-fitted against the upper portion of the grommet inside the cavity to squeeze therebetween the braided shielding.

A wire harness that includes an electric wire that includes a core wire, an insulating inner cover that covers an outer circumference of the core wire, and a conductive shield that covers an outer circumference of the insulating inner cover; a conductive bracket including a plate that includes an insertion hole through which the electric wire is inserted and a protrusion protruding from an edge of the insertion hole in the plate; a fastener that fastens a folded-back portion of the shield that is folded back to an outer circumferential side of the protrusion to the protrusion; and a body made of resin that sandwiches the plate in a thickness direction.

A cable neutral wires connector for connecting neutral wires of a cable, the cable having a cable longitudinal axis, includes a connector body, a plurality of neutral wire ports, and at least one securing mechanism. The neutral wire ports are defined in the connector body. The neutral wire ports are each configured to receive at least one of the neutral wires therethrough. The at least one securing mechanism is configured to secure the neutral wires in the connector body. The connector body is configured to be mounted on the cable such that the neutral wire ports are circumferentially distributed about the cable longitudinal axis.

A connection device for connecting a shield conductor of an electrical cable to a grounding section includes: a housing surrounding a receiving space into which an electrical cable is insertable with a shield conductor along a longitudinal axis, the housing being attachable to the grounding section such that the grounding section extends at least partly in the receiving space; and a spring element which is adjustably disposed on the housing and which has a clamping leg and is movable from an open position to a clamped position relative to the housing such that when in the clamped position, the spring element acts with the clamping leg on the shield conductor of the electrical cable inserted in the receiving space, the clamping leg having an engagement portion for acting on the shield conductor, the engagement portion having an at least partially curved or angled engagement contour.

An electrical connection assembly includes a cable having a conductor, a metallic textile in electrical contact with the conductor, and a crimp element creating a pressure between the conductor and the metallic textile.

A terminal-equipped electric wire includes an electric wire that includes a conductor, a terminal connected to the conductor, and a shell attached to the terminal. The terminal includes a grip portion that pinches the conductor. The shell includes a pressing portion that presses at least a portion of the grip portion toward the conductor. The grip portion and the conductor are joined with an alloy layer. The alloy layer contains a Cu—Sn alloy.
