Abstract: A substrate connection structure includes a first substrate, a second substrate, a first connection terminal plate, a second connection terminal plate, and a fastening member. The first connection terminal plate extends away from the first substrate and includes a flat portion. The second connection terminal plate extends away from the second substrate and includes a flat portion. At least one of the flat portions includes a screw insertion portion. The fastening member fastens the first connection terminal plate and the second connection terminal plate through the screw insertion portion in a state in which the flat portions are in contact with each other.

Abstract: An open-face electrical wire connector for forming an electrical connection to a wire connector lug wherein the wire connector lug, which is free of any sealant can be brought into engagement with another portion of a housing, which carries a sealant, to cause the sealant to flow around the wire connector lug and the electrical connection therein for on-the-go formation of a sealant covered electrical connection.

Abstract: An electrical ground connector assembly including a bus bar adapted to have a plurality of electrical wires separately connected thereto; and a combined electrical connection and mounting post assembly directly connected to the bus bar. The combined electrical connection and mounting post assembly is adapted to directly connect an electrical conductor thereto. The combined electrical connection and mounting post assembly extends from the bus bar in a generally cantilever fashion and is configured to supportingly attach the bus bar to a structure. A portion of the combined electrical connection and mounting post assembly could be mounted to extend through a hole in the structure, or alternatively a portion of the combined electrical connection and mounting post assembly could be mounted to an exterior side of the structure.

Abstract: A wire grounding assembly including a unitary bidirectional connector having a first threaded shaft, a second threaded shaft, and a torque-receiving portion that is radially oriented about the major axis of the unitary bidirectional connector and that has a first radial surface and an opposing second radial surface. The first threaded shaft and the second threaded shaft project, respectively, from the first radial surface and the second radial surface, and are aligned such that their respective major axes coincide with the major axis. The first threaded shaft has an axial ground wire slot configured to receive a ground wire therein, and the second threaded shaft has a base. The unitary bidirectional connector has an annular sharp projection that projects beyond the plane of the second radial surface, encircling the base, and is configured to penetrate a non-conductive surface of a ground upon application of sufficient torque to the torque-receiving portion.

Abstract: An electric motor having an integrally formed bonding apparatus that allows an installer to quickly and efficiently bond the electric motor to a bonding grid of a bonding area. A fastener having a head is inserted into an aperture of the housing of the electric motor such that a bonding conductor is captured between the housing and the head. The bonding conductor is electrically coupled to the housing via direct contact between the bonding conductor and the housing and/or via indirect contact through the fastener. An integrally formed surface of the housing prevents the bonding conductor from moving out from under the head.

Abstract: A ground connector implemented as a modified lug on a flexible ground lead allows the convenient termination of a solid ground wire at a cable shield ground clamp. The ground wire and ground clamp are electrically and mechanically attached at the modified lug. The flexible ground lead carries the combined ground connection to a common ground point within an enclosure.

Abstract: An electrical connector for grounding an electrical conductor. The connector has a base, a U-shaped fastener and a nut. The base is a one-piece metal member with a threaded stud, an elongate seat along one exterior side, and a hole through the base located between the seat and the stud. The U-shaped fastener has a first leg that extends through the hole, a second leg that extends along an exterior side of the base, and a head located opposite the seat on the base. The nut is attached to the legs of the U-shaped fastener on a side of the base opposite from the side of the base facing the head of the U-shaped fastener.

Abstract: A device for electrical connection of a cable provided with an electrically conductive core to a printed circuit secured in a case, using a tubular member which is longitudinally subdivided into several limbs wherebetween the conductive core of the cable passes, which tubular member is provided with a thread so as to screw thereon a threaded cap provided with a stud-like member which bears on the conductive core of the cable. In accordance with the invention, the printed circuit is provided with orifices to allow passage of the limbs of the tubular member, said orifices forming between themselves a bridge which extends between the limbs of the tubular member and on which there is provided at least one conductive track onto which said stud-like member presses the core of the cable.

Abstract: An electrical wire connector has a bifurcated bolt having opposed prongs coextending spaced from each other defining a wire-receiving channel therebetween. A nut is threaded onto the bolt until an insert carried by the nut is pressed tightly against one of the two wires disposed along the channel, to clamp the wires tightly against the bottom of the channel and electrically interconnect the wires. The nut has an internally threaded lower section within which a body section of the insert is disposed, and an upper section joined to the lower section at a frangible section adapted to break upon sufficient torque being applied to the nut by a tool, thus providing a torque limit and a visual indication of full assured interconnection.

Abstract: An electrical connector adapted for connecting a ground wire to a service wire employs a clamp arm having a bifurcated head which clamps the ground wire. A nut mounted to a threaded shaft of the arm is tightened to force a sleeve to engage exterior surfaces of the arm to clamp the ground wire. A pair of service wires may be secured by a bow tie type connector band disposed between the sleeve and the lock nut.
