Abstract: A splice device is provided that includes a main housing, a first set of jaws, and a movement conversion assembly. The first set of jaws is in the main housing and depend outward along a conductor axis. The first set of jaws receive a first electrical conductor therein. The movement conversion assembly is in the main housing and includes a driver operatively associated with the first set of jaws so that a tightening movement of the driver is converted into a clamping force of the first set of jaws on the first electrical conductor.

Abstract: An interface for use with a wedge type cable connector, the interface includes a body having first and second longitudinal side walls and upper and lower concave longitudinal contact surfaces, wherein the lower concave longitudinal contact surface includes a convex longitudinal bump.

Abstract: A breakaway threaded fastener is provided that includes a hollow stud, a pin, and a cap. The stud has a hollow cavity, a closed end, an open end with an upper surface, a wall, and an outer surface, which includes an external thread. The pin is in the hollow cavity with a first end at the closed end of the hollow stud and a second end proximate the open end of the hollow stud. The cap has another hollow cavity with a closed end, an open end, an inner surface, and an internal thread. The cap is threadably engaged to the open end of the hollow stud via the internal and external threads so that the second end of the pin abuts the inner surface of the cap with a gap remaining between the upper surface of the hollow stud and the inner surface of the cap.

Abstract: Wedge type electrical connector assemblies adapted to electrically and mechanically connect conductors within transmission and/or distribution circuits is provided. The wedge type electrical connector assembly includes a frame, an interface and a wedge assembly. The interface is coupled to the frame so that it is movable relative to the frame. The interface can move and flex when installing conductors into the wedge type electrical connector assemblies.

The wedge type electrical connector assembly includes a frame, an interface and a wedge assembly. The interface is coupled to the frame so that it is movable relative to the frame. The interface can move and flex when installing conductors into the wedge type electrical connector assemblies. The interface includes a tap contact surface configured to push a tap conductor positioned between the tap contact surface and the wedge in a direction so that a larger surface area of the tap conductor contacts the tap contact surface.
