    摘要: The present disclosure envisages a heat-absorbing-and-dissipating jacket (80) for a terminal (100) of an electrical device (1000). The jacket has a body (81) configured to at least partially contour walls of the housing (10) of the terminal (100) and the jacket is made of a heat-absorbing-and-dissipating material. The body (81) of the jacket has a lower portion (86) extending operatively below the housing (10) of the terminal (100). The body (81) of the jacket also has an upper portion (88) extending operatively above the housing (10) of the terminal (100). The jacket (80) of the present disclosure is a cost-effective means which allows maximum heat absorption and dissipation from an enclosed electrical device and can be incorporated in an existing design of an electrical device.

    摘要: The present disclosure envisages an electrical connector assembly (100) for heavy duty applications. The assembly (100) comprises a plug (10), a receptacle (20), a gasket (50), a first collar (30) and a second collar (40). The collar (30) has external threads and is rotatably mounted on the plug (10). The collar (40) has internal threads complementary to the external threads of the collar (30) and is rotatably mounted on one of the plug (10) and the receptacle (20). The arrangement of collars is configured such that rotation of the collar (40) causes axial displacement of the collar (40) and thereby that of the plug (10) against the gasket (50) for forming a watertight seal between the plug (10) and the receptacle (20). The connector assembly (100) of the present disclosure provides enhanced ingress protection.

    摘要: The present disclosure relates to the field of luminaires. More specifically, the present disclosure envisages a drain arrangement for use with a luminaire that is supported on a wiring conduit via a junction box. The arrangement includes a hood coupled with the junction box via a connecting conduit, wherein connection cables from the wiring conduit are received within the hood via the connecting conduit and the junction box. An adaptor extends from the hood and the luminaire. The adaptor is defined by a sidewall extending from the luminaire and has an operative top surface configured on an operative top periphery of the sidewall. The adaptor further includes an annular inner sidewall configured to circumscribe an electric connection of the luminaire. A drain conduit extends from the adaptor and is configured to drain out the fluid collected within the adaptor outside of the annular inner sidewall.

    摘要: A guard for a luminaire including a guard portion (102), at least one connecting legs (104) extending from a periphery of the guard portion (102). The guard (100) is mounted on the periphery of luminaire (110) via complementary connection formations configured on the periphery of the luminaire (110), a hook like profile (106) configured at an operative free end of the connecting legs (104) to provide a secure fitment of the guard (100) in the connection formations. The guard (100) includes a first pair (104A), a second pair (104B) and a third pair (104C) to provide three point locking of the guard (100) on the luminaire periphery (110). A stiffener element (108) is welded in an L-shaped luminaire (107) defined by a first section (107A) and a second section (107B) to provide stiffness to the connecting legs (104).

    摘要: A locking arrangement for a plurality of toggle switches is provided, which facilitates independent locking and independent actuation of the toggle switches. The locking arrangement restricts the movement of a lever associated with a toggle switch of the plurality of toggle switches so as to maintain the lever of the toggle switch in at least one predetermined position. The locking arrangement is adapted to receive a locking device that restricts the movement of the lever in at least one predetermined position defined by the periphery of a locking plate or a base plate of the locking arrangement.
