Abstract

A cable connector, a cable clamp, and a method for detecting bridging of car batteries. The cable connector includes a housing and a wiring circuit, wherein the wiring circuit is arranged in the housing and includes a first wiring terminal, a second wiring terminal, and a detection module and voltage absorption module electrically connected between the first wiring terminal and the second wiring terminal, and a voltage absorption module. The voltage absorption module includes a piezoresistor bridged between the first wiring terminal and the second wiring terminal. The detection module includes a first switch circuit and a second switch circuit which are oppositely bridged between the first wiring terminal and the second wiring terminal to be alternatively turned on, wherein the first switch circuit includes a first illumination unit, and the second switch circuit includes a second illumination unit.
