ABSTRACT:
An electrical coupling has a ring through which extend multiple screened wires. The ring has several longitudinally-extending integral splines projecting from its outer surface from which project a curved, circumferentially-extending spring arm on each side. The wires extend through the ring and their screening sleeves are folded over an end, contact surface of the ring and back along its outside, being retained under the spring arms. A metal cap fits over one end of the ring holding the sleeves against the contact surface and protecting them around the outside of the ring. The cap is held on the ring by a collar, which extends around its outside and screws onto a body member at the opposite end of the ring.
