An apparatus for providing a temporary electrical grounding connection is described. The apparatus comprises a cable electrically joining first and second conductive couplings, the first and second conductive couplings each electrically coupled to a conductive surface using a clamp, magnetic component, or other connection component. A conductive coupling may be connected to the magnetic component using a clamp connected to a stub extending from the magnetic component, and there may be multiple clamps or magnetic components used in different combinations or series to provide an electrical bypass between two or more conductive surfaces.

A contact-making device (10) is used for a resistance measurement on a test object (30). The test object (30) comprises a threaded hole (31), which has an internal thread (32). The contact-making device (10) is designed to be mechanically coupled to the internal thread (32) of the threaded hole (31). The contact-making device (10) comprises a first contact (11) and a second contact (12), in order to make electrical contact with the test object (30) at, at least, two points when the contact-making device (10) is mechanically coupled to the internal thread (32). The first contact (11) and the second contact (12) are electrically insulated from one another by an insulating material (15-17) in the contact-making device (10).

The present disclosure provides a smart jumper cable having a display module, which comprises a pair of clamps and a control module. The clamps are configured to electrically connect to a vehicle battery; the control module is electrically connected with the clamps through electric wires; the control module further comprises an input port for connecting with an external power supply. The control module comprises a MCU, a switch module and a display module; wherein the display module is electrically connected with the MCU. The switch module is configured to turn on/off the power-supply to the vehicle battery from the external power supply; and the switch module is controlled by the MCU. The smart jumper cable having a display module can display not only the load voltage but also some other working status visually.

Electrical cables, such as battery jumper cables, include connectors with thin, elongated jaws that are capable of being introduced into small spaces and of securely clamping onto the terminals of a battery of a car or another vehicle. The connectors may comprise locking pliers.

Jumper cables include a housing with first and second pairs of cables extending therefrom. On an upper surface of the housing are a pair of dual-color LEDs, each associated with one of the pairs of cables. Circuitry within the housing causes each LED to illuminate in one of two discrete colors when the polarity of the cables is reversed. A rotary isolation dial with multiple visual indicators allow a user to independently verify that the polarity of each pair of cables is correct before establishing electrical communication between two batteries. The LED circuits include a surge suppressor that protects the rescuing vehicle and the disabled vehicle's electrical system from alternator load dump when the rescuing vehicle's engine is running. Adapters allow an auxiliary power source to be coupled with the jumper cables in the event the dead battery is incapable of powering the LEDs and alarms.

A broadband connector system is provided. Said broadband connector system comprises a broadband socket connector comprising a socket strip conductor element comprising a socket lateral dimension, and a broadband plug connector comprising a plug strip conductor element comprising a plug lateral dimension. In this context, the broadband socket connector is connectable to the broadband plug connector, wherein the socket lateral dimension is greater or equal to the plug lateral dimension.

A method and device for controlling current flow through a welding clamp are provided. One welding clamp includes a first contact piece configured to contact a workpiece and to provide a first current path that limits current flow. The welding clamp also includes a second contact piece configured to contact the workpiece and to provide a second current path. When the welding clamp is being clamped to the workpiece, the first contact piece is configured to contact the workpiece prior to the second contact piece. In addition, the welding clamp is configured so that current flows through the first current path prior to flowing through the second current path when the welding clamp is being clamped to the workpiece.
