ABSTRACT:
A cable connector is provided which is particularly suitable for connecting tensioned armored cable sections used in wireline measurement while drilling operations or well logging operations. The cable connector comprises a pair of field latchable housings each attached to the braided outer covering of a cable, so that cable tension is transferred to the housings. The electrical connection between the inner flexible conductor wires of the armored cables is sealed from the environment within the housing by an elastomeric boot, with the boot being loosely positioned within the housing chamber by the flexible conductor wires. The housing need not isolate the electrical connection from the drilling fluids within the drill string, and the simplicity of the cable connector enhances both reliability and drill site assembly and repair.
