There is described a method for assembling a connectorized electrical equipment. A connectivity list required for the connectorized electrical equipment is provided, comprising an origin connector and its identifier, a destination electrical equipment subpart and its identifier thereof; and a list of connections between the origin connector and the destination electrical equipment subpart. By querying a database comprising a library of connectors, a construction plan is generated for the connectorized electrical equipment. The construction plan includes diagrams for assembly, images to assist the assembler, a list of material for managing inventory and instructions. An ATE can be connected to the connectorized electrical equipment to be assembled. Based on the construction plan, instructions are provided for a connection between the origin connector and the destination electrical equipment subpart. Connections can be made manually or using the ATE. All connections are registered in real time for progression tracking and instruction updates.

A mounting jig for a semiconductor device includes an insulated circuit board positioning jig having a concave part in which an insulated circuit board is placed, a tubular contact element positioning jig disposed on an upper side of the insulated circuit board and having a plurality of positioning holes at predetermined positions to insert a plurality of tubular contact elements respectively, and a tubular contact element press-down jig having a flat plate and a plurality of projections extending from a lower surface of the flat plate. The plurality of projections includes a first length from the flat plate on a side closer to an outer circumference of the insulated circuit board, and a second length from the flat plate inside the outer circumference of the insulated circuit board. The first length is shorter than the second length.

A method for installing an elastomeric cover sleeve on an electrical connection including a connector and a cable having a cable axis includes: providing an installation tool including a slide portion; premounting the installation tool on the cable such that the slide portion extends along the cable axis and covers a portion of the cable; thereafter, sliding the cover sleeve onto the cable and onto the slide portion of the premounted installation tool to a parked position wherein the slide portion is interposed between the cover sleeve and the cable; installing the connector onto the cable; and thereafter, sliding the cover sleeve along the cable axis and the slide portion onto the connector.

Described embodiments include a system, apparatus, method, and computer program product. A described apparatus includes a receiver circuit configured to receive data indicative of at least one physical parameter of a power transmission system configured to transport electric power from one place to another. The apparatus includes an analysis circuit configured to assess a potential operational risk to a portion of the power transmission system at least partially based on the received data. The apparatus includes a planning circuit configured to schedule a traverse by a mobile device over a transmission line of the power transmission system at least partially based upon the assessed potential operational risk.

A system including multiple inspection machines and an NG board discharge machine which moves an NG board to a checking position visible to a worker. The system acquires positional information of a circuit board during conveyance, and stores the NG board by associating a work result for the NG board with the positional information. In this manner, the positional information of the NG board is acquired. Based on the positional information, it is determined whether or not the circuit board conveyed to the NG board discharge machine is the NG board. When the circuit board conveyed to the NG board discharge machine is the NG board, a checking-purpose working machine discharges the NG board to the checking position.

Systems and methods of manufacturing printed circuit boards using blind and internal micro vias to couple subassemblies. An embodiment of the invention provides a method of manufacturing a printed circuit including attaching a plurality of metal layer carriers to form a first subassembly including at least one copper foil pad on a first surface, applying an encapsulation material onto the first surface of the first subassembly, curing the encapsulation material and the first subassembly; applying a lamination adhesive to a surface of the cured encapsulation material, forming at least one via in the lamination adhesive and the cured encapsulation material to expose the at least one copper foil pad, attaching a plurality of metal layer carriers to form a second subassembly, and attaching the first subassembly and the second subassembly.

An imaging module of the invention includes: an electrical cable; a solid-state image sensing device; and a flexible wiring substrate including: a device-mounted portion onto which the solid-state image sensing device is mounted; two extended portions which bend at both sides of the device-mounted portion and extend from the device-mounted portion so as to come close to each other with increasing distance from the device-mounted portion; two connection end portions extending from the two extended portions along the direction of the axis of the front end of the electrical cable on an opposite side of the device-mounted portion; and terminals which are provided on the two connection end portions and connected to the electrical cable, the flexible wiring substrate electrically connecting the solid-state image sensing device and the electrical cable.

The present document describes a method for building a part for use with a test equipment in the performance of a test of electrical equipment. The part comprises at least one of a connector, an interface cable, and a test program. The method comprises accessing a database comprising data about the part, building the part based on the data, and providing the part with a unique identifier. The data is sufficient for at least one of determining an availability of the part and allowing building the part.

A fabrication apparatus for the fabrication or prefabrication—preferably in an automated or semi-automated manner—of individual wire sections, comprising at least one arrangement apparatus for receiving and arranging a plurality of individual wire sections, in particular prepared wire sections from the fabrication apparatus, wherein the at least one arrangement apparatus comprises a main body and an arrangement section for receiving the wire sections, wherein the arrangement section is designed to string a plurality of individual wire sections through a gap that extends along the base body and along said gap, wherein the at least one arrangement apparatus can be attached to the fabrication apparatus in a releasable manner.
