A cable gland includes a hub body having a first end configured for attachment to a structure and a second end opposite the first end. The hub body defines an internal passage. A gland nut is configured for attachment to the second end of the hub body to secure a cable in the cable gland. The gland nut defines an internal passage such that the internal passage of the gland nut communicates with the internal passage of the hub body when the gland nut is attached to the hub body. A torque sensor module is mounted to one of the hub body and the gland nut and configured for measuring and indicating a component of an applied torque as a result of attaching the gland nut to the hub body when securing the cable in the cable gland.

A heat retarding arrangement includes a phase change material. The heat retarding arrangement is attachable at or in an electric conductor and passively cools the electric conductor.

Accessories are removably received by a non-contact electrical detector for measuring an electrical characteristic without galvanic contact between the accessory and a non-contact sensor in the non-contact electrical detector. In some embodiments, an accessory is positioned in a gap between first and second extensions of the non-contact electrical detector. In some embodiments, an accessory includes first and second recesses on opposite sides of the accessory. First and second clamp arms of a non-contact electrical detector are inserted within the first and second recesses to removably hold the accessory. An external conductive prong of the accessory is electrically coupled, or is selectively electrically coupleable, with an internal conductive prong of the accessory. The external conductive prong is configured to be inserted into a receptacle of an electrical outlet. In use, the accessory positions the internal conductive prong within a sensing area of the non-contact electrical sensor of the non-contact electrical detector.

A thermal protection plug, provides a temperature sensor I, which is directly contact with the neutral wire terminal, so as the heat transferring from neutral wire terminal to the temperature sensor keeps prompt and improve the response delay to cut-off the power switch. And because the negative pole of DC is collinear with the neutral wire terminal, it means that the temperature sensor I can use a low voltage isolation sensor and it is safer even though the breakdown between the shell and the pins of the temperature sensor I.

A temperature-sensitive battery connector is disclosed. The connector can include a connector body and at least one conductor mounted to the connector body and configured to convey a current signal used to measure voltage from a battery pack or battery cell to a battery management system (BMS). The connector can include a thermal switching device mounted to the connector body and thermally coupled to a terminal of a battery pack or a battery cell. The thermal switching device can be configured to provide an overtemperature signal to the BMS by changing or interrupting a current conducted by at least one conductor when a temperature of the battery pack or battery cell exceeds a threshold temperature.

A safety plug for an electrical outlet, including an electrically nonconductive plug body. An adapter is removably coupled to a first end of the electrically nonconductive plug body. The adapter includes a set of pins. The set of pins correspond to a set of pin connector slots associated with an electrical outlet. The safety plug is a dummy plug configured to keep the electrical outlet covered to protect from electrical discharge.

A connection device for electrical connection of a vehicle to a charging cord provided with a charging socket includes a housing, a power contact disposed within the housing, and a printed circuit board mounted in the housing having a first face provided with a first metal pad which is compressed between the printed circuit board and a surface of the power contact, and a second face provided with a first temperature sensor which is arranged opposite the first metal pad. A method of electrical connection of a vehicle to a charging cord provided with a charging socket is also provided.

A component for a sensor having a sensor element and having an output interface for the outputting of an electrical signal, which is dependent on a physical variable, from the sensor element to the output interface, including—a circuit with at least one first signal path for receiving the electrical signal from the sensor element and for conducting the electrical signal to the output interface, and a second signal path, which differs from the first signal path, for conducting the electrical signal to the output interface,—wherein an activity of the first signal path or of the second signal path is dependent on a position of the component in the sensor.

A base station interface device including an interface board, which is located in a housing and determines an upper portion of a first surface as a first mounting location and an upper portion of a second surface opposite to the first surface as a second mounting location, including a relay connector wherein one end is exposed to the upper portion of the first surface and the other end is exposed to the upper portion of the second surface; a base station signal matching unit mounted on the first mounting location and including a first connector coupled to the one end of the relay connector; and a base station signal processing unit mounted on the second mounting location and including a second connector coupled to the other end of the relay connector.

The following disclosure provides a power strip including: a busbar electrically connected to a power source; multiple electrical outlets allowing multiple power plugs to be inserted thereinto, respectively; distribution bars which are branched out from the busbar and respectively supply the electrical outlets with electric currents of the power source; and a plurality of electric current measurement units each configured to measure the electric current flowing through a corresponding one of the distribution bars.
