ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for keeping an electrical connection in tact within a pressurized well bore, the connection being made between a cable conductor extending from downhole of the well bore and a power conductor extending through and enclosed by a rigid tube extending through a wellhead barrier of the well. The electrical connection includes a first connector terminating the power conductor and a second connector terminating the down hole cable conductor. The second connector is mated with the first connector to complete the electrical connection. Mated rubber boots surround the electrical connection. The apparatus includes a tubular top stop for fixedly attaching to the rigid tube including a hole for receiving the rigid tube. The top stop engages and confines an upper end of the rubber boots. A rigid tubular outer sleeve encloses the rubber boot and has an upper end engaging the top stop. The top stop is attached to the outer protective sleeve and a tubular bottom stop has a hole for receiving the down hole cable conductor. The bottom stop engaging and confining a lower end of the rubber boots. The outer sleeve engages the bottom stop and the top and bottom stops and outer sleeve confine and prevents significant expansion of the rubber boots.
