Embodiments of the present disclosure include a cable management system with a housing comprising a first shell and a second shell configured to couple together about welding system cabling such that a portion of the welding system cabling is contained by the housing. The first and second shells form openings at ends of the housing such that the welding system cabling is capable of extending through the openings and such that edges of the openings enclose a perimeter of the welding system cabling when the first and second shells are coupled together about the welding system cabling. A cradle receives a weld cable of the welding system cabling. A cable clamp engages the weld cable and cooperates with the cradle to restrict movement of the weld cable when the weld cable is disposed in the cradle and the cable clamp is engaged.

The present invention provides a cable joint protection box, which includes a buckle, at least one abutting piece, and a box body formed by two half-boxes. The two half-boxes are in rotatable pivot joint at one side of the box body via a pin, and the two half-boxes are buckled at the other side of the box body via the buckle. A dovetail groove is disposed on a front surface of the buckle. At least one through hole which penetrates through the buckle is disposed at a bottom of the dovetail groove in the buckle. A dovetail protrusion slidably buckled with the dovetail groove of the buckle is disposed on the box body. When the cable joint protection box is locked, the abutting piece is fixedly connected to the buckle, and the abutting piece penetrates through the through hole in the buckle and abuts against the box body.

A wire harness for a charging inlet of a vehicle includes first and second high voltage wires having first and second conductors. An inline disconnect electrically connects the first and second conductors and is configured to allow the conductors to be disconnected. The inline disconnect includes a housing having a central cavity, a first chamber at a first end that receives the first high voltage wire, and a second chamber open to the central cavity at a second end that receives the second high voltage wire. First and second disconnect contacts terminated to the conductors are received in the central cavity. A connecting element couples the first and second disconnect contacts and is removable from the disconnect contacts to allow disconnection of the first and second disconnect contacts to electrically separate the first and second high voltage wires.

The application relates to a transmission cable joint for a medium voltage underground cable system. The cable joint comprises at least a casing and connection terminals for coupling wires of transmission cables. In addition, the connection terminals are in connection with an inductance component that is sheltered by the casing and limits capacitive earth fault current, when the coupled cables produce such current.

Devices are described that support, house, and protect an electrical cable monitoring system that is electrically coupled to an electrical cable. An example support structure includes an elongate body including an interior surface extending along and concentric to an axis of the electrical cable. The body is configured to engage a cable accessory disposed on the electrical cable. The support structure includes a first electrode attached to the interior surface and configured to operatively couple to the cable accessory. The support structure includes a second electrode attached to the body and configured to operatively couple to the shielding layer. The support structure includes a monitoring device attached to the interior surface and operatively coupled to the first and second electrodes. The monitoring device is configured to monitor one or more conditions of the electrical cable or the cable accessory.

Closure (1) for receiving a section of a conductor assembly (71), comprising a housing (25) closable around the conductor assembly (71), and an electrode assembly (200), which comprises a movable portion comprising a contact surface (150) for mechanically contacting the conductor assembly (71), and a sensing electrode (140), operable as a first capacitor electrode of a sensing capacitor for sensing a voltage of the conductor (80). The closure further comprises urging means (160) for urging the movable portion of the electrode assembly (200) towards the conductor assembly (71) for establishing a mechanical surface contact between the contact surface (150) and the conductor assembly (71), when the housing (25) is closed around the conductor assembly (71).

An apparatus and method for preventing intrusion into a splice closure includes a pair of end wall plates, a first housing plate and a second housing plate affixed to an outer casing of the splice closure. Each end wall plate includes two or more end wall segments made of a formable metal and having a plurality of finger-shaped extensions that are bendable to conform to the contour of an end wall of the splice closure and around any cable(s) entering or exiting the splice closure. The first housing plate is made of a metal and pre-formed to conform to the contour of a first housing half of the outer casing of the splice closure. The second housing plate is made of a metal and pre-formed to conform to the contour of a second housing half of the outer casing of the splice closure. The first and second housing plates may be separable along a centerline of symmetry for use with an extended-length splice closure.
