Title:
BATTERY CABLE WITH PROVISIONS FOR INTEGRAL CIRCUIT PROTECTION
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2005029646
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A battery cable circuits protection device (10) and circuit for preventing fluctuations in voltage from a supply battery (100) is provided. The device includes a terminal base (12) having a battery cable lug member (102) adapted for mounting to and making an electrical connection with a battery post (100a) of the battery. A battery cable mounting structure (12a, 12b) is fixedly connected to the terminal base for detachably connecting the terminal base to a battery cable. The battery cable supplies a vehicle starter motor with electrical energy. A first fine mount (14a) supported by the terminal base provides electrical interconnection to the battery post. A second fuse mount (14a) supported by the terminal base provides electrical energy to vehicle electrical systems other than the vehicle starter motor. The first and second fuse mounts are adapted for detachable a connection to a fuse (14), which provides electrical interconnection between the first and second mounts.
