ABSTRACT:
A ground clamp for clamping to a cable shield to provide a round connection employs a U-shaped yoke. A keeper has a driver which threadably engages thread surfaces at the interior side of the yoke legs. The keeper has a clamp jaw which may be compressively engaged against a cable shield received in an aperture defined by the yoke. The yoke connects to a common ground point via a ground connector member. The ground connector member has a grounding portion which may comprise a flexible ground connector or a rigid conductive plate. A bracing portion of the ground connector member is connected to the grounding portion by a ramp portion which projects laterally towards the cable. The bracing portion includes two arms which project laterally from a center connector portion. The connector portion and arms define a horseshoe-shaped stress relief clamp which may be crimped into engagement with the cable to mechanically connect the ground clamp with the cable outer jacket.
