A pad extender for coupling a connector coupled to a conductor cable to a lug terminal member of a transformer. The pad extender includes a planar body having a first portion and a second portion. The first portion has a first axis. The pad extender further includes an elongated slot defined in the first portion of the planar body extending parallel to the first axis. The first portion is couplable to the lug terminal member via a first fastener extending through the slot. The planar body is slidable relative to the lug terminal member along a length of the elongated slot. The pad extender further includes a plurality of apertures defined in the second portion. The connector is couplable to the second portion via a second fastener extending through one of the apertures of the second portion.

A terminal fitting (T) connects a plurality of wires (40) by a plurality of terminal fittings being connected to end parts of the wires (40) and held in contact, and includes a wire connecting portion (10) to be connected to the end part of the wire (40), a tubular portion (11) having a tubular shape and a shaft (12) fittable inside the tubular portion (11). The terminal fittings are held in contact by fitting the tubular portion (12) and the shaft (12) together. The tubular portion (11) or the shaft (12) is provided with an arcuate portion configured to enable the rotation of each of the tubular portion and the shaft-shaped portion about an axis in a state where the tubular portion and the shaft-shaped portion are fit together.

A terminal fitting includes a terminal body and a plurality of terminal connection sections. A connection terminal is connected to an electric wire. The connection terminal has a holding space defined by a pair of fastening caulking pieces provided on both side sections of the connection terminal and upper end sections of the pair of fastening caulking pieces which are folded back inwardly. A pair of caulked pieces is provided so as to stand upright on both side sections of the terminal connection section and is configured to be accommodated in the holding space. A provisional engaging mechanism that is detachably engaged with the pair of fastening caulking pieces when the pair of caulked pieces is accommodated in the holding space and is provided between the pair of caulked pieces and the pair of fastening caulking pieces.

A connecting arrangement for electrically connecting at least two cable ends of electrical cables, in particular of stranded wires, and for providing a hermetic seal between the cable ends has a connection sleeve for receiving the cable ends. The connection sleeve comprises at least a first chamber for receiving one of the cable ends, wherein the first chamber includes a partition wall with respect to the other cable end.

An auxiliary generator connection, a method of operating and a system are disclosed. The auxiliary generator connection includes at least one first conductor coupled to a first portion of the electrical utility distribution network. At least one second conductor is coupled to a second portion of the electrical utility distribution network. A t-type connector is coupled between the at least one first conductor and the at least one second conductor. A switch is coupled between the at least one second conductor and the t-type connector. A generator conductor is electrically coupled at a first end to the t-type connector. A generator plug is coupled to a second end of the generator conductor opposite the t-type connector.

An induction-heating device for heating and or melting a heat affected product zone of shaving or cosmetic products (6A) stored in a product container (6) which consists of a layer of the product immediately below a top product surface and heated by an electrically conductive metallic target member (7) having through-passages overlying the top product surface and energized by an induction coil (3) into which an electromagnetic field is generated by electronic circuitry for a predetermined time period into the product container, thereby permitting the heated and or melted product to flow through the through-passages onto the top surface of the target member to be collected by a user for shaving or cosmetic purposes.

An enclosed connection system for mechanically and electrically connecting first and second cables each including an elongate electrical conductor covered by an insulation layer, includes an electrical connector, an enclosure, and a protective end cap. The electrical connector is configured to form a connection with the first and second cables wherein the conductors of the first and second cables are electrically connected by the electrical connector. The enclosure is configured to receive and cover the connection and to protect the electrical connector. The enclosure includes a plurality of enclosure ports each configured to receive a cable. The protective end cap is configured to selectively cover at least a selected one of the enclosure ports.

A grounding terminal unit (A) is sandwiched between a seating surface (S) of a bolt (B) and a grounding part (E) with first connecting plates (13) of a first grounding terminal fitting (10) and second connecting plates (43) of a second grounding terminal fitting (40) placed one over the other in a plate thickness direction. The first grounding terminal fitting (10) is configured by uniting two divided fittings (20, 30) including tabs (19) connectable to first conductive paths (Wa) and the two divided fittings (20, 30) are formed with uniting locking portions (25, 33) for holding the two divided fittings (20, 30) in a united state by being locked to each other at a position different from the first connecting plates (13). The first connecting plates (13) are in the form of single plates with the two divided fittings (20, 30) united.
