An electrical multi-conductor cable comprising a plug-in connector, in particular a line with a charging plug for electric vehicles. The cable has a central cable core, a number of conductors which are arranged concentrically in relation to one another in a ring around the cable core and are composed of individual wires, and in each case one insulation between the conductors. According to the invention, the contact apparatus has two clamping shell parts which, on the inner side thereof, have a plurality of receptacles which are radially stepped from one another. In each case one contact body is received in the receptacles of a clamping shell part and makes contact with one of the concentric conductors. Each contact body has a channel shape with a longitudinal extent and a curved cross-sectional profile around an associated conductor. A closure connects the clamping shell parts and fastens said clamping shell parts in the closed position, wherein the clamping shell parts coaxially hold the contact bodies and press each contact body against the respectively associated concentric conductor for contact-making purposes.

The present disclosure provides electrical clamps that can easily attach to a variety of shaped objects, such as fence posts and other objects for the purpose of establishing an electrical connection or conductive path between the electrical clamp, an object the electrical clamp is secured to, and a conductor attached to the electrical clamp. The electrical clamp utilizes an adjustable saddle construction that can be secured to the geometry of objects, such as a square, rectangular, round or oval geometry of the object, and a clamp cap construction that can electrically couple one or more conductors to the electrical clamp.

A mechanical grounding clamp including a body, having an upper plate defining a threaded hole therethrough and having an outer surface, a lower plate spaced apart from the upper plate and having an inner surface, and a connecting plate connecting the upper plate to the lower plate, a fastener mateable with the threaded hole in the upper plate and having a proximal end and a distal end, the distal end extendable through the threaded hole of the upper plate and toward the inner surface of the lower plate. There may be a nut on the fastener for driving toward the upper plate to secure a grounding conductor to the body.

A grounding segment for a segmented grounding electric device, including a plurality of segment single bodies disposed in a matched manner, wherein a curved concave surface is formed in an outer side surface of each segment single body; a chute is formed in the curved concave surface; an interior of the chute is in sliding connection with an elastic member; two ends of the elastic member are respectively connected to sliders; the sliders are in sliding connection with the interior of the chute; each slider is movably connected to a curved fixing member matching a grounding conductor; the curved fixing member is made of a conductive material applicable to grounding conductors of different sizes; and a locking apparatus is connected between the plurality of segment single bodies. A user conveniently transports and mounts the grounding segment to reduce a land excavation area. Universality of the grounding segment is improved.

Various implementations of grounding cross connectors are disclosed. The grounding cross connectors may be used to clamp together two or more, often perpendicular, conductors. In some implementations, a grounding cross connector includes an upper clamping pad and a lower clamping pad held together by a pair of threaded fasteners. A pair of perpendicular conductors may be placed in between the clamping pads and secured together by torqueing nuts on the threaded fasteners. The upper clamping pad may include a hook through which one of the threaded fasteners may pass, thereby allowing the upper clamping to rotate relative to the lower clamping pad.

An electrical transmission line repair apparatus comprising a first end section, a second end section and a link member. The first and second end sections are spaced apart from each other and each configured to receive and releasably retain a conductor thereacross. The link member is positioned on one side of the first and second end sections, so that the first and second end sections can be coupled to a conductor on either side of a link member, suspension or other device from below, and without decoupling or de-energizing the transmission line. In addition, the installation of the same and the clamping can be achieved from below the conductor upon positioning. That is, the link member or members do not straddle the transmission line, requiring dismantling of the dead end configuration, or the disassembly of the link member from the first and second end section.

An electrical connector includes two pads having the same shape. Each pad has a connector body with a first groove, a second groove, and a hole. The hole extends through the connector body between the first groove and the second groove. A fastener extends through the hole of both of the two pads so that the two pads having the same shape are connected to one another and are pivotable around the fastener relative to one another with the two first grooves contacting a first conductor when the first conductor is in an installed position and the two second grooves contacting a second conductor when the second conductor is in an installed position. A spring is between a first end of the fastener and one of the two pads having the same shape so that the spring biases the two pads having the same shape towards each other.
