An electrical connector for connecting electrical conductors in an aircraft includes a pin having a first contact surface and a socket to receive the pin. The socket has a second contact surface contacting a first contact surface of the pin when the pin is in the socket. A securing part is positioned to apply a contact or clamping force pressing the contact surfaces against each other. The securing part includes a shape memory alloy to exist in a martensite an austenite phase depending on temperature of the securing part, wherein the securing part assumes a first pre-set shape when the temperature is below a first temperature threshold, and a second pre-set shape when the temperature is above a second temperature threshold higher than the first temperature threshold, wherein the contact or clamping force applied by the securing part in the second pre-set shape is greater than in the first pre-set shape.

A cable assembly comprising a termination with at least one conductive, compressible member and a conductive ground shield. The conductive, compressible member may be held within a connector module forming the termination such that the conductive compressive member is pressed against, and therefore makes electrical contact with, both an outer conductive layer of the cable and ground structures within the connector module. In some embodiments, these connections may be formed using a conductive, compressible member with an opening configured to receive the end of the cable therethrough. The conductive ground shield may be configured to compress the conductive, compressible member, and to cause the conductive, compressible member to electrically contact the cable's conductive layer. The conductive, compressible member may be formed from a compressible material and may comprise a plurality of conductive particulates configured to provide electrically conductive paths.
