ABSTRACT:
An exemplary electrical adapter that can be used with a triaxial cable having a center connector, a middle connector, and an outer connector as well as a method for using the same is provided. The adapter's center connector electrically couples with the cable's center conductor, the middle connector electrically couples with the cable's middle conductor, and the outer connector electrically couples with the cable's outer conductor. The adapter further includes a first single-conductor connector electrically coupled with the center connector of the triaxial connector where the first single-conductor connector can be configured to provide the center conductor of the cable at a predetermined potential. The adapter embodiment further includes a second single-conductor electrically coupled with the middle connector of the triaxial connector where the second single-conductor connector is configured to provide the middle conductor of the cable at the same potential as the center conductor of the cable.
