Abstract
A connector is provided to be assembled on a first illumination element and configured to be releasably coupled to a mating connector on a second illumination element. The connector includes a connection element comprising a conductor. The conductor comprises a first end coupled to a cable extending through the connection element, and a second end is releasably connected to an end of a mating conductor of the mating connector. A mounting member is configured to secure the connection element to the first illumination element, and a first gap is defined between an internal surface of the mounting member and the external surface of the connection element. A first sealing element is coupled to the mounting member and the connection element; and a second sealing element is coupled to the mounting member and the cable.
