SUSPENSION WIRING MODULE
A purpose of the present invention is to make a wiring member easy to bend in a suspension wiring module connecting a vehicle body-side device and a vehicle wheel-side device. This suspension wiring module comprises a suspension wiring member, which includes a transmission line main body and one or more covering layers covering the transmission line main body. At least one section of the suspension wiring member is a cabin-external section that is positioned outside of the cabin of the vehicle. In the cabin-external section, an arc-shaped groove is formed in an outer covering, which is the covering layer that is located furthest to the outside among the one or more covering layers.

Holder
A method of attaching a line to a support structure includes providing a holder having a fastening section, a side-part section, a closure section, and an engagement section, where the fastening section, the side-part section, and the engagement section define a ring having a gap. The method further includes fastening the fastening section to the support structure, bending the side-part section with respect to the fastening section after the fastening section has been fastened to the support structure, inserting the line through the gap into the ring, and bending the closure section with respect to at least one of the fastening section, the side-part section, and the engagement section such that the closure section engages the engagement section and closes the gap.

CONNECTOR AND HOLDING STRUCTURE OF ELECTRIC WIRE WITH TERMINAL
A connector includes a housing to be assembled to a wall portion of a box-shaped body, a bus bar having a fastened portion disposed inside the wall portion and is to be connected to a terminal fitting by fastening using a bolt, and a nut held by the housing with a gap between the nut and the fastened portion into which the terminal fitting is capable of being inserted and engaged with the bolt to fasten the fastened portion and the terminal fitting inserted into the gap together.
SEALANT DETECTION APPARATUS, METHOD AND ASSEMBLY
Apparatus, assembly and method for investigating the integrity of a seal and sealant contained in a sealing fitting used in hazardous locations. The apparatus/assembly can include signal transmitters and signal receivers provided on a conduit system on either side of a sealing fitting. The apparatus/assembly can include probes placed on either side of a sealant within a sealing fitting, the probes placed in probe ports provided through the wall of the sealing fitting.
SWING ARM ASSEMBLY FOR A UTILITY VAULT HOUSING A UTILITY EQUIPMENT
A swing arm assembly for a utility vault housing a utility equipment includes a swing arm bracket for supporting the utility equipment and a latch support arm both rotatably coupled to a sidewall of the utility vault. A latch pin is attached to one of the swing arm bracket and the latch support arm and a locking slot is formed in the other one of the swing arm bracket and the latch support arm for slidably receiving the latch pin. The locking slot has a first locking end that locks the latch pin in a stowed position for stowing the utility equipment and a second locking end that locks the latch pin in a service position for servicing the utility equipment.

EQUIPOTENTIAL MAT USING WIRE MESH NETTING
Disclosed is an equipotential (EPZ) matting for creating an equipotential zone at a work site. A wire mesh of the EPZ matting is constructed by first cutting desired lengths of cable and laying the lengths of cable parallel and adjacent to each other. The cables are then connected to one another at regularly spaced intervals along the cables using pressed metal ferrules. The connections are staggered as between adjacent cables to create an evenly spaced, open mesh pattern when the wire mesh is tensioned perpendicularly to the longitudinal axes of the cables when initially laid along side one another. The wire mesh is opened and pulled tight for use as EPZ matting on the work site. After work is completed, the mesh is closed and bundled for transport, storage, and re-use.
Control system for electrical cord reel
In an electrical cord reel, a rotatable member can rotate about a winding axis to spool and unspool a linear material. An input power connector can couple to an electrical power source. An output power connector on the rotatable member can couple to an electrical cord at least partially wound about the rotatable member. A switch is adjustable to allow or prevent electrical current flow from the input power connector to the output power connector. In an aspect, the electrical cord reel includes an electric cord comprising a first power wire, a second power wire, and a signal wire. A method of controlling the electric cord spool system includes energizing the first power wire and the signal wire. The method further includes determining a continuity of the signal wire. The method further includes de-energizing the first power wire when determining discontinuity of the signal wire.
