A consolidated automotive parts kit containing the parts necessary to replace and seal a switch, relay, or transducer in a vehicle and perform repairs to the corresponding connector using a pigtail and associated repair supplies such as butt splices, heat shrink tubing, and seals or gaskets.

A cable jacket for a conductor is disclosed having a flame-retardant insulation and a gas-permeable, heat-resistant outer casing. The flame-retardant insulation is positioned over the conductor so as to at least partially surround the conductor. The gas-permeable, heat-resistant outer casing surrounds the flame-retardant insulation.

A cable assembly includes a cable and a cable mounting clamp. The cable mounting clamp includes a base removably connectable to a surface. The base may include a tab removably insertable into an aperture defined in the surface and a lock releasably connectable to the surface. The base further includes an outer body which defines an inner channel and a support ramp disposed within the inner channel, the inner channel extending along a longitudinal axis. The cable mounting clamp further includes a cap connectable to the base to further define the inner channel therebetween. The cable mounting clamp further includes a roller tube disposed within the inner channel and rotatably mounted on the support ramp, the roller tube rotatable about the longitudinal axis.

A molded portion-equipped electric cable includes: a linear conductor portion; a terminal that is connected to an end portion of the conductor portion; a molded portion that covers a connecting portion between the conductor portion and the terminal such that the terminal protrudes from one end side of the molded portion and the conductor portion protrudes from the other end side of the molded portion; and an insulating cover portion that covers over the molded portion and the conductor portion and is formed by shrinking a heat shrinkable tube.

A conductive path includes: a first conductor in which a terminal end portion serves as a first connection portion; a second conductor in which a second connection portion at a terminal end portion is coaxially fixed to the first connection portion; a support member that is more rigid than the first and second conductors, and is disposed so as to extend along a fixed portion between the first and second connection portions; and a heat-shrinkable tube (holding member) that integrates the support member with the first and second conductors while enveloping the support member. Even when an external force acts on the first and second conductors so as to skew the axes of the two conductors, the support member and the heat-shrinkable tube keep the two conductors in the coaxial state.

A cable waterproof structure includes a plurality of insulated wires and a sheath covering the plurality of insulated wires collectively, a heat shrinkable tube with adhesive that includes adhesive inside, and is provided and shrunk so as to cover an end of the sheath and a circumference of the plurality of insulated wires extended from the end of the sheath, and a fixing heat shrinkable tube that includes no adhesive inside, and is provided and shrunk so as to cover a part of the heat shrinkable tube with adhesive that covers the sheath and a circumference of the sheath extended from the heat shrinkable tube with adhesive, wherein a shrinkage start temperature of the fixing heat shrinkable tube is higher than a shrinkage start temperature of the heat shrinkable tube with adhesive.

A cable water stop structure for a cable that includes plural insulated wires and a sheath covering the plural insulated wires includes a heat shrinkable tube that is shrunk to wrap around an end of the sheath and the plurality of insulated wires extending from the end, and a cover that is attached to sandwich the end of the sheath, the plurality of insulated wires extending from the end and the heat shrinkable tube. The cover includes a gripping portion gripping the heat shrinkable tube to restrict the heat shrinkable tube from moving along a cable longitudinal direction.

Elastic sleeve (1) for electrically insulating a HV/MV power conductor in a power network, comprising a) a shrinkable or expandable elastic sleeve body (10); b) a receiving space (20) in the sleeve body, for receiving the power conductor; c) a cavity (30) formed in the sleeve body; and d) a divider assembly (40), arranged, at least partially, in the cavity and comprising a plurality of discrete impedance elements, operable as a voltage divider for sensing a voltage of an inner conductor of the power conductor.

A first aspect relates to cable connectors for connecting two multicore cables, namely, two flat cables or one flat cable and one round cable. The cable connector includes a clamping sleeve, having a ceramic insulator with at least two openings, one on each side of the clamping sleeve, for accommodating core conductors. The clamping sleeve includes at least two contact inserts that pass through the clamping sleeve at corresponding openings on both sides. Clamping elements are associated with each of the at least two contact inserts in order to clamp the core conductors on one side or the other side of the contact inserts, and thus to establish electrical contact between the clamping sleeve and the multicore flat cable or round cable, thereby connecting the two cables. The cable connector also includes a heat shrink tube that envelops the entering portions of the cables and the clamping sleeve, and in the shrunken state lies tightly against an outer contour of the clamping sleeve and an outer contour of the portion of the cables that enter the clamping sleeve.

A second aspect relates to a cable termination for the insulating termination of a multicore flat cable. The cable termination includes a clamping sleeve that includes a ceramic insulator with at least two openings on one side of the clamping sleeve for accommodating core conductors. The clamping sleeve includes at least two contact inserts situated behind the openings, a clamping element being associated with each of the at least two contact inserts in order to clamp the core conductors on the contact inserts and thus establish mechanical fixing of the core conductors on the clamping sleeve so as to electrically insulate them from one another, and thus to terminate the cable. The cable termination also includes a heat shrink tube that envelops the entering portion of the cable and the clamping sleeve, and in the shrunken state lies tightly against an outer contour of the clamping sleeve and an outer contour of the portion of the cable that enters the clamping sleeve.
