ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector for a high voltage, high power cable for use in an environment of high pressure fluid. The connector is comprised of parts which can be assembled in place in the field with widely available tools, by unskilled operatives. The connector includes a generally cylindrical housing of rigid material, one end of which is designed to tightly enclose an armored cable and the other end of which is provided with a coupling ring for secure attachment to a feedthrough socket, a continuous outer protective sheath of rigid material thus being provided. Within the housing, a generally cylindrical contactor support body, fabricated of resiliently deformable insulating material, seats on the wall of the housing. A contactor for each of the contacts of the feedthrough socket is sealed within the contactor support body. The contactor support body includes a depending skirt portion formed by an axial opening into which the unsheathed end of an armored cable extends, the end of the armor sheath being terminated against a ring of rigid material through which the unsheathed portion extends. The conductors of the armored cable extend into the contactors to which they may be securely attached. The internal volume formed within the skirt portion of the contactor support body is further occupied by additional resilient insulating bodies having openings through which the conductors pass. Pressure-resistant sealing, as by bonding or molding, is provided at critical surfaces as required to maintain the integrity of the housing, the interior of the contactors and the point of juncture with the feed through socket.
