ABSTRACT:
A recessed housing and cover are held together by self-tapping screws. The housing is provided with a half round extension having an inner diameter slightly larger than the outer diameter of the cable. The cable insulation is removed to about the middle of the extension and is held tightly to the extension and the assembly by means of two layers of heat shrunk plastic tubing. Wires from the cable to the pins of a multi-pin military type connector are contained within the recess. The military connector is provided with a surrounding flange which is held in engagement with a pair of outrigger bosses on the recessed housing. The recessed housing and the top cover are also provided with opposed flanges for engagement with the flange of the military type connector.
Alternatively when the connector must be repaired in the field the heat shrinkable tubing may be replaced with tightly wrapped stretchy elastomeric electrical tape, or additional pieces of heat shrinkable tubing may be left on the assembled cable for later use when repairs are necessary.
