摘要:
An electrical connection to an elongated conductor is made by means of a plate-like connecting member having a pair of open jaws which extend from a yoke. One of the jaws is connected to the yoke by a toggle link which is straightened when the jaws are closed to maintain the jaws in their closed condition and in electrical contact with the conductor. An apparatus is also disclosed for securing a plurality of connecting devices to a plurality of separate conductors in a single operation.
摘要:
A method for terminating cable having a plurality of individually insulated conductors covered by a sheath, first by slitting or removing slices of the sheath to expose lengths of said conductors, then spreading apart the conductors laterally from each other, precisely locating the spread apart conductors in a desired lateral adjacent spaced relationship, then electrically connection an electrical terminal to each of the conductors. Such terminals are either sequentially or simultaneously connected to the conductors. The terminals may be of the insulation piercing type. Alternatively, the individual conductors may be stripped and terminated with terminals which need not be of the insulation piercing type.
