Connector Shell
A termination grounded to
connector shell has the general configuration shown in the following
figure. The user may specify pigtail Length, Area, and cross-sectional
dimensions.
5.
Length, shown in blue, is the termination length measured from the shield
connection, through the connector to the ground point.
6. Area,
shown in yellow, is the cross sectional area of the region bounded by the shield
and/or unshielded wires in the cable and the pigtail conductor. The
boundary is defined by the inner edge of each conductor the forms the area shown
in yellow.
7.
Cross-sectional dimensions are defined in terms of wire gauge for a circular
wire, width and thickness for a
flat conductor or number of strands for a woven wire braid conductor.
