  • Patent number: 4047783
    Abstract: A special purpose electrical connector. It is for connecting an end of a resistive type of electrical conductor so as to have maximum electrical and mechanical properties.The resistive conductor has a resilient material core of desired resistivity which is surrounded by an insulator. A pair of conductive material wires are applied in a cooperative manner with one wire extending doubled for a substantial distance into the core. The other wire wraps around the outside of the insulator and pierces through to join the first within the resilient core, before extending axially beyond the end of the core and insulation.
