Abstract
A contact for the solar-power feed cable having a conductive core surrounded by an insulating sheath has a conductive contact part adapted to be connected in a solar-power connection box to a conductor and engaging the conductive core of the cable. An outer contact ring is crimped to the sheath longitudinally of the cable inward from the contact part and is unitary with the contact part. An inner contact ring spaced longitudinally inward of the cable from the outer contact ring is crimped to the sheath and formed with a strain-relief flange.
