A detonator junction for use in a blasting network is disclosed. A body of the detonator junction includes a chamber for receiving a detonator. A retaining member, attached to the body, creates a slot for retaining one or more transmission lines proximate an explosive output region of a detonator disposed in the chamber. A limiting member, attached to the retaining member, traverses an imaginary longitudinal extension of the slot and limits inadvertent removal of transmission lines from the slot. A clip may interlock with the detonator, which in turn may be locked into the chamber to ensure secure and proper placement of the detonator in the chamber. When the detonator is activated a transmission signal is initiated in transmission lines disposed within the slot. |
