CABLE SHIELD CONNECTING ASSEMBLY FOR ELECTRICAL DEVICE AND METHOD FOR SECURING AND GROUNDING A CABLE TO A CYLINDRICAL HOUSING OF AN ELECTRIC ROTARY MOTOR

摘要

The present invention relates to a cable shield connecting assembly (10) for securing and grounding a cable (30) to the housing of an electrical device. The cable (30) comprises a cable jacket (32) and braided shielding (34) extending from an end portion of the cable jacket (32). The cable shield connecting assembly (10) comprises: i) a mounting plate (20) having a cavity (22) and an aperture (24) arranged on a bottom side of the cavity (22), and ii) a grommet (12) having an inner diameter inside which the end portion of the cable jacket (32) is fitted, and upper and lower portions (14a, 14b) extending on both sides of an edge of the aperture (24) of the mounting plate (20), wherein the upper portion (14a) of the grommet (12) is fitted inside the cavity (22). The cable shield connecting assembly (10) further comprises a clamp (16) pressed-fitted against the upper portion (14a) of the grommet (12) inside said cavity (22) to squeeze therebetween said braided shielding (34).
