  • Electrical conductor interconnection apparatus
    Patent number: 6891106
    Abstract: Discloses a clamp and conductor interconnection apparatus suitable for use in a number of electrical transmission and distribution applications. An interconnection member is disposed on a cable clamp. The interconnection member provides a paired connector mount to mount corresponding lockable articulated cable contact connectors for coupling to conductors that are to be electrically and mechanically interconnected. Each connector mount provides a mechanism to articulate or rotate the cable contact connector with respect to the interconnection member. When the desired orientation of the cable contact connector is achieved, a releasable connector lock means is engaged to releasably fix the orientation of the cable contact connector with respect to the cable clamp.
