ABSTRACT:
An impedance assembly is provided for a termination device, disconnectable connector, or other type of joint for an electrical connection, such as an elbow, to facilitate preventing improper installation. More specifically, an impedance assembly can include an obstruction member that help prevent the insertion of a stud into a female device, such as a bushing, unless the stud is properly inserted through the aperture of the lug of the cable assembly. The obstruction member can include a flexible and/or displaceable member that can be displaced by the lug of the cable assembly. Alternatively, an impedance assembly can prevent the rotation of a female member which rotates to receive the stud of a male device. The impedance assembly can include an element that is received in a cavity, groove, etc. of the female member for preventing the rotation of the female member unless the element is removed therefrom. For example, the element can be removed from the cavity, groove, etc. upon the displacement of a displaceable member operatively connected to the element, thus permitting the female member to rotate.
