Earthing conductor with series-parallel resistances and terminations - increases operational safety by arrangement of high resistances in e.g. parallel pairs along length of cable

摘要

Gps. of e.g. two series resistances each of 1 megohm are connected either singly or in parallel with each other within a conductor (10) composed of single-core or twin cable. At one end a termination (32) incorporates a socket (34) for insertion of a push-button. At the other end a so-called TENAX connector (38) has claw-type elements (40) pulled in by a traction element (42) and held by springs. USE/ADVANTAGE - For dissipation of electrostatic charges from bodies of operators. Risks of sparking from an armband, and of electric shock to its wearer, reduced.
