  • Patent number: 4118097
    Abstract: The following specification describes a cable terminal assembly incorporating a conductive metal plate secured to a variable size multi strand cable by casting or molding a mass of conductive casting material around the plate and cable to form a mechanical junction as well as an electrical connection therebetween. The plate and conductive casting material are covered by an insulating jacket. Aligned passages are provided in the jacket above and below the plate in alignment with an aperture in the plate to permit the plate to be electrically secured to battery terminals employing studs for fastening. The passage in the insulating jacket above the plate is defined by a ring having an outer diameter sized for nesting within the jacket passage below the plate of a second cable terminal assembly, so that two or more cable terminal assemblies may be stacked on a single battery terminal stud at a desired angular orientation.
