ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector (10) for establishing an electrical connection between an outer conductive sheath (22, 22) of a cable (12a, 12b) to the connector (10) comprises an insulative fitting assembly (16, 17) having a first conductive member (42, 42) mounted thereto, an insulative connector housing assembly (14) having a second conductive member (19) mounted thereto. A cable (12a, 12b) having a portion of its conductive sheath (22, 22) exposed is extended through aligned passageways (43, 76, 43, 77) in the fitting (16, 17) and housing assembly (14). The first and second conductive members (42, 42, 19) include first and second, substantially radially extending, sheath-engaging surfaces (53, 53, 93, 94,) respectively, which clamp an exposed fanned-out portion of the conductive sheath (22, 22) therebetween when the fitting assembly (16, 17) is attached to the housing assembly (14).
