ABSTRACT:
A cable connector for attaching a cable having stranded wires enclosed in an insulated enclosure has a metal plate attached to the stranded wires. A threaded bolt is passed through an aperture in the metal plate and held in position by a nut. The parts, with the exception of the portion of the threaded shank extending beyond the nut, and the outer surface of the nut are hermetically sealed in an insulating enclosure. Finally a malleable sleeve of conductive material is fitted over a portion of the uncovered threaded shank of the bolt. When the shank of the bolt and the sleeve are passed through an aperture in a bulkhead or other conductor member, and a nut tightened on the end of the bolt projecting through the conductor member, the malleable sleeve is longitudinally compressed causing it to radially expand within the aperture in the conductor member.
