<p>CONNECTOR FOR COUPLING A GROUND CONDUCTOR TO THE SHIELD OF A SHIELDED CONDUCTOR The disclosure is directed to a wrap-around type of connector for coupling the exposed shield of a jacketed cable from which a portion of the jacket has been removed to a ground ing conductor. The connector is generally C-shaped with one free end portion having a greater radius of curvature than the other free end to permit one free end to pass over the other as the connector is closed on the cable shield. A tab is struck from the central portion of the connector to divide the interior of the connector into a cable receiving cavity and a ground conductor receiving cavity. By selectively adding strengthening ribs and removing material the various portions of the connector are made to function, as described. The connector can be made bare, or insulated, as required.</p> |
