Abstract
An electrical-installation system comprising flat cable and connectors. Power-supply and data-transmission functions are combined in essentially the same plane. The data-transmission wires are not twisted. Contact can be established with the cores inside the connectors by piercing their insulation without stripping it.
Claims18
An electrical-installation system comprising:
- a cable comprising at least one insulated power-transmission core and at least two insulated data-transmission cores and shielding enclosing together the at least two data-transmission cores, wherein the at least two data-transmission cores are not twisted with each other and the at least one power-transmission core and the at least two data-transmission cores are combined in essentially the same plane;
- and
- a connector comprising at least one insulated contact in engagement with the at least one of the data-transmission cores of the cable by piercing, without stripping, the insulation of the data-transmission core and by piercing, without stripping, the shielding of the data-transmission core.
An electrical-installation system comprising:
- a cable having an outside and comprising at least one power-transmission core and at least two insulated data-transmission cores and shielding enclosing together at least two of the insulated data-transmission cores;
- wherein the at least two insulated data-transmission cores are not twisted with each other and the at least one power-transmission core and the at least two data-transmission cores are combined in essentially the same plane;
- and
- a connector comprising at least one contact in engagement with the at least one power-transmission core and at least two insulated contacts in engagement with the at least two data-transmission cores of the cable by piercing, without stripping, the outside of the cable and the shielding and insulation of the data-transmission core.

An electrical-installation system comprising:
- a cable having an outside and comprising at least one insulated power-transmission core, at least two insulated data-transmission cores and shielding of the data-transmission cores against the at least one power-transmission core, wherein the shielding encloses together the at least two data-transmission cores, the at least two data-transmission cores are not twisted with each other and the at least one power-transmission core and the at least two data-transmission cores are combined in essentially the same plane;
- and
- a connector comprising at least one power-connector in engagement with the at least one power-transmission core of the cable by piercing without stripping, the outside of the cable and the insulation of the power transmission core;
- said connector further comprising, for each of the at least two data-transmission cores, at least one insulated contact in engagement with the corresponding data-transmission core of the cable by piercing, without stripping, the outside of the cable and the shielding and insulation of the data-transmission cores, the insulation of the insulated contacts being such that it prevents short circuits between the pierced data-transmission core and the pierced shielding,
- wherein the outside of the cable fits into an accommodation in the connector such that the cable will always be precisely forced into a specific position therein, without stripping the outside of the cable and the shielding of the data-transmission cores.
