Abstract

An arming tandem for a perforating gun is provided. The arming tandem includes an internal arming pin that is biased in a retracted position. Detonating the last perforating gun in a gun string forces the arming pin in the immediately adjacent tandem into contact with a grounding plate in the next perforating gun, thereby arming the next perforating gun. The arming pin is biased in the retracted position by a helical compression spring that is contained within a counterbored opening in the arming tandem. An adjacent bulkhead includes a grounding plate that surrounds a contact pin. The grounding plate provides a flat surface for contacting the arming pin and creating a secure connection to ground.
