Grounding assemblies for cables entering telecommunications enclosures. The grounding assemblies include a cable fixation subassembly and a grounding subassembly that are electrically coupled together to ground strength members and a conductive shield of a cable. The cable fixation subassembly can fixate the cable such that the strength members lie in a plane that is at a non-zero angle relative to each of a horizontal reference plane and a vertical reference plane.

An electrical junction box including a rear wall and lateral and oppositely lateral walls extending forwardly from the rear wall; a plate series spanning between the lateral and oppositely lateral walls; a plurality of first tongue and groove joints interconnecting the lateral ends of the plates; and at least a first cable passage port extending from the upper surface of one of the plates to the one plate's lower surface.

According to embodiments of the present invention, a cable sealing assembly for providing an environmental seal about a cable includes a housing, a flowable cable sealant and a compression feature. The housing includes first and second housing parts. The first housing part defines a cable passage to receive a cable having a lengthwise cable axis. The cable sealant is disposed in the cable passage. The compression feature forms at least a part of the second housing part and is movable in an installation direction between a ready position and an installed position. The compression feature is shaped and configured to force the cable sealant to flow about the cable in a direction transverse to the cable axis to circumferentially surround a portion of the cable when the compression feature is moved from the ready position to the installed position.

A splice for use in high voltage electrical environment employing a combination of cold-shrink and interference fit in a single splice component allowing for the use of a shortened core at a first cold splice end and the absence of a cable adapter at the interference fit second end.

A fitting for receiving an insulated lead and a method for assembly thereof are provided. The fitting comprises an elongate member, a sleeve, a collar, and an insulator. The elongate member comprises a first end, a second end, and an interior surface defining an elongate cavity. The first end is open. The sleeve is configured to receive the insulated lead. The first end is configured to receive the sleeve. The collar is configured to compress the sleeve onto the insulated lead to form a seal between the insulated lead and the elongate member. The insulator is configured to inhibit electrical contact between an inner conductor of the insulated lead and the interior surface of the elongate member.

A strain relief system for a cable inserted within has a main housing with an opening and a series of ramp features and a series of serrations on an interior surface. The system also has a rotating collar with an opening in line with the opening of the main housing. The rotating collar having a series of follower features configured to be inserted into the opening of the main housing such that when the roating collar is rotated relative to the main housing, the follower features engage the ramp features to compress the cable inserted with the strain relief system. The rotating collar also having at least one ratcheting tab configured to engage the series of serrations of the main housing such has to provide a ratcheting function between the rotating collar and the outer housing.
