Abstract: A support core includes a tube body for holding a device in an expanded state, a low-friction film disposed over an outer surface of the tube body, and a fixing device for holding the film in place, the fixing device comprising a loop of tape wrapped longitudinally over the film and through the tube body, or a tab on the film that is affixed to the tube body. To remove the tube body, the tape and/or film are cut so that the film can slide towards the front end of the tube body, and the tube body is then pulled out of the device.

Abstract: A device for electrically connecting a cable metallic shield to another electrical element includes a neutral connection portion and an extended connecting member. The neutral connection portion is a flexible contact strip for electrically connecting to the metallic shield of the cable. The extended connecting member connects to the neutral connection portion and is used to electrically connect to another electrical element. The extended connecting member has a plurality of electrical members disposed over the contact strip. A clamping device biases the contact strip against the metallic shield of the cable. In use, an environmental jacket from the electrical cable is removed to expose the metallic shield of the cable. The contact strip is wrapped around the exposed metallic shield, and the clamping device is then connected to the contact strip. Another end of the extended connecting member is then used to connect to the other electrical element.
