摘要

An apparatus for use with a perforating device includes a section having a window and a detonating cord disposed in a bore of the section. The apparatus may include a detonator configured to generate a high order detonation; and a clip connecting the detonator to the detonating cord. The clip may be formed as a ribbon having a base and a prong extending from opposing sides of the base. The base has an opening for receiving the detonator. The prongs have biased ends to secure the detonating cord against a face of the detonator.
