Abstract
A connector is described, with a receiver ( ) at the rear end that receives and terminates to a cable conductor ( ), with a contact ( ) at the front end, and with an electrical fuse ( ) between the receiver and contact. The fuse has front and rear fuse terminals ( ). A threaded connection between a contact threaded stud part ( ) and a threaded coupling ( ) in the receiver can draw the contact and receiver together and clamp the fuse terminals between contact and receiver. An insulator ( ) surrounds the threaded tube to mechanically fix the threaded coupling to the receiver while electrically isolating one from the other. The receiver has a rear end crimped around the cable conductor and a front end crimped around the insulator.
