Improvements in or relating to connectors for cable carrying conduits

摘要

A connector for a conduit for a cable (12) (e.g. an optical fibre cable or a power cable). The connector comprises a hollow body having a throughway for the cable with a coupling (19) for a conduit at one end and a cavity 10 in which an annular seal (23) is located. An actuator (26) is provided to compress the seal radially inwardly into engagement with the cable and into engagement with said side of the cavity to block flow of fluid (gas or liquid) through the cavity and/or to grip the cable. The connector may have 15 means (47) to retain the actuator in the position in which it compresses the seal. 10' 23 21 25 18 17 13 16 (26 29 ---27 2015 14 22 2 2 z 12 19 f30 f30
