Abstract
A multi-hub electrical fitting for electrical cable or conduit includes a connector body constructed of metal, said connector body including an inbound end and an outbound end; a plurality of inbound bores in said inbound end of said connector body; an outbound bore in said outbound end; an end stop within said connector body segregating said inbound bores from said outbound bores; an attachment arrangement on said inbound end for securing and holding electrical cable or conduit within each inbound bore; and an attachment arrangement on said outbound end for securing said electrical fitting to a panel or pipe.
Claims17
A multi-hub electrical fitting for receiving conduits or electrical cables and passing corresponding electrical wires through the multi-hub electrical fitting comprising, a connector body constructed of metal, said connector body including an inbound end and an outbound end;
- at least three inbound bores in said inbound end of said connector body, each inbound bore capable to receive a corresponding conduit or electrical cable;
- an outbound bore in said outbound end;
- an end stop within said connector body segregating said inbound bores from said outbound bore;
- an attachment arrangement on said inbound end for securing and holding the corresponding conduit or electrical cable within each inbound bore;
- and an attachment arrangement on said outbound end for securing said electrical fitting to a panel;
- the connector body adapted to provide a path for the electrical wires from each conduit or electrical cable from the inbound end to the outbound end;
- the at least three inbound bores comprising an outer bore and an internal bore;
- and the electrical fitting further comprising inspection holes wherein a corresponding inspection hole disposed in the connector body extends internally from the connector body through walls of the outer bore to an inner wall of the internal bore.
A multi-hub electrical fitting for receiving conduits or electrical cables and passing corresponding electrical wires through the multi-hub electrical fitting comprising, a connector body including an inbound end and an outbound end;
- at least three inbound bores in said inbound end of said connector body, each inbound each inbound bore capable to receive a corresponding conduit or electrical cable;
- and an outbound bore in said outbound end;
- the connector body adapted to provide a path for the electrical wires from each conduit or electrical cable from the inbound end to the outbound end;
- the at least three inbound bores comprising an outer bore and an internal bore;
- and the electrical fitting further comprising inspection holes wherein a corresponding inspection hole disposed in the connector body extends internally from the connector body through walls of the outer bore to an inner wall of the internal bore.
An electrical connector assembly for receiving electrical cables or conduits and passing corresponding electrical wires through the electrical connector assembly comprising, a connector body having an outlet end portion and an inlet end portion;
- at least three inlet openings disposed in the inlet end portion adapted to receive a corresponding electrical cable or conduit;
- and an outlet opening disposed in the outlet end portion;
- the connector body adapted to provide a path for the electrical wires from the electrical cable or conduit from the inlet end portion to the outlet end portion;
- the at least three inlet openings comprising an outer bore and an internal bore;
- and wherein each inlet opening comprises an inspection hole;
- a corresponding inspection hole disposed in the connector body extends internally from the connector body through walls of the outer bore to an inner wall of the internal bore.
