  2. Modular connector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modular_connector

    The connector body positions with omitted or unconnected contacts are unused for the electrical connection but ensure that the plug fits correctly. For instance, inexpensive telephone cords often have connectors with six positions and four contacts, to which are attached just two wires, carrying only line 1 from a one-, two-, or three-line jack.

  3. Cable gland - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cable_gland

    Certain types of cable glands may also serve to prevent entry of flammable gas into equipment enclosures, for electrical equipment in hazardous areas. Although cable glands are often called "connectors", a technical distinction can be made in the terminology, which differentiates them from quick-disconnect, conducting electrical connectors.

  4. Electrical termination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_termination

    A terminating resistor for a television coaxial cable is often in the form of a cap, threaded to screw onto an F connector. Antenna cables are sometimes used for internet connections; however, RG-6 should not be used for 10BASE2 (which should use RG-58) as the impedance mismatch can cause phasing problems with the baseband signal.

  5. Electrical cable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_cable

    An electrical cable is an assembly of one or more wires running side by side or bundled, which is used as an electrical conductor to carry electric current. Electrical cables are used to connect two or more devices, enabling the transfer of electrical signals , power , or both from one device to the other.

  6. Twist-on wire connector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twist-on_wire_connector

    Twist-on wire connectors are a type of electrical connector used to fasten two or more low-voltage (or extra-low-voltage) electrical conductors. They are widely used in North America and several European countries in residential, commercial and industrial building power wiring, but have been banned in some other jurisdictions.

  7. Via (electronics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Via_(electronics)

    A via (Latin, 'path' or 'way') is an electrical connection between two or more metal layers of a printed circuit boards (PCB) or integrated circuit. Essentially a via is a small drilled hole that goes through two or more adjacent layers; the hole is plated with metal (often copper) that forms an electrical connection through the insulating layers.

  9. Wire stripper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wire_stripper

    A laser wire stripper is a computer-controlled machine, much like a CNC router, which uses a laser to burn off the insulation of the wire. Laser wire stripping machines are used mostly for very fine gauge wires since they do not damage the conductor.
