Various embodiments of the teachings herein include a signal cable connection device comprising: a cable with a sleeve and multiple loose wires extending out from an extremity of the sleeve; a conductive metal ring crimped at the extremity so the ring and the sleeve are fixed to each other, one end of the conductive metal ring having an outward-turned flange, and a shielding wire connected to the conductive metal ring; and a housing with a cable channel defining an outer opening located at an outer side of the housing and an inner opening located at an inner side of the housing, and a threaded hole at an edge of the inner opening. When a screw is screwed into the threaded hole, the outward-turned flange of the conductive metal ring is clamped between a head of the screw and a sidewall of the inner opening.

A device for the sealed closing of an opening for one or more elongate parts to pass through includes a sealing and/or clamping element with at least two interacting first and second parts that are axially displaceable relative to one another, and a pressure contour acting axially onto the sealing and/or clamping element. A first axial displacement of the pressure contour and an axial displacement of the at least one second part relative to the at least one first part causes a first change in geometry of the at least one first part transversely to the displacement direction. Also, a further axial displacement of the pressure contour causes a further change in geometry of the at least one first part transversely to the displacement direction such that the opening is sealed around the one or more elongate parts passing therethrough.

An electric device includes a housing and a cable. The housing has a pipe bracket disposed on the housing. The pipe bracket includes an interior pathway extending from a free-end of the pipe bracket into the housing. The free-end of the pipe bracket has teeth thereon. The cable has a union nut and a sleeve. The sleeve has a crimped section attached to the cable such that the crimped section is non-displaceable. The sleeve further has a toothed annular surface. In an installed state of the cable to the housing, a feedthrough portion of the cable extends through the interior pathway of the pipe bracket and into the housing. The union nut encompasses the sleeve and is attached to the pipe bracket to thereby press the toothed annular surface of the sleeve against the teeth of the pipe bracket such that the cable is fixed rotationally to the housing.

A cable gland includes a bushing. The bushing may include a rib on an interior surface of the bushing to facilitate sealing and gripping of a cable received in the cable gland. The bushing may comprise or be formed from a silicone rubber material.

Provided is an example of a cable seal that includes a first sealing component, a second sealing component, and a folding member. The first sealing component may have a first diameter. The second sealing component may have a second diameter, where the first diameter is greater than the second diameter. The folding member may be operable to fill a space between the first sealing component and the second sealing component. The first sealing component may be operable to form a first ingress protection seal with a cable box housing fitting, the second sealing component may be operable to form a second ingress protection seal with an electrical cable, and the folding member may be operable to react to a force applied to the electrical cable by deforming in response to the force and enabling maintenance of the first ingress protection seal and the second ingress protection seal.

An electrical box includes an integral conduit receiving port, a weatherproof fitting provided in the conduit receiving port, a conduit gripping member is provided in the integral conduit receiving port, and a conduit release is provided in the conduit receiving port.

A cable gland includes a bushing. The bushing may include a rib on an interior surface of the bushing to facilitate sealing and gripping of a cable received in the cable gland. The bushing may comprise or be formed from a silicone rubber material.

A cable has a corrugated armor exterior surface, and a split bushing defines an interior surface which conforms to the corrugated exterior surface. The bushing is split radially in one place to form a gap which may be opened to allow the bushing to open, or the bushing is split radially at two or more places to form two or more parts, and is fitted about the corrugated exterior surface. The bushing defines first and second external chamfer surfaces. A connector includes a body having external threads and a chamfer which urges against the first bushing chamfer. A nut has internal threads which engage the external threads of the body, and a chamfer which urges against the second bushing chamfer. As the nut is tightened onto the body, wedge action on the first and second bushing chamfers compresses the bushing around the corrugated exterior surface to secure the connector to the cable.

The present invention is a connector for connecting an electrical cable having cladding to an aperture in an electrical panel. The assembled connector has a spring, a shell, and a insulator along a longitudinal axis. The spring has a base from which two insertion tabs extend coaxial with the axis and the shell has two side walls to prevent over-insertion of the cladding into the connector. The insertion tabs of the spring have hook latches extending past the insulator that lock the connector in the panel, and the insulator has pressure buttons for flexing the insertion tabs during insertion and removal of the connector to the electrical panel.
