Abstract
To attach a cable to a NATO slave receptacle, a wire from the cable may be passed through an opening in a cable receiving member and connected to a tab formed on a NATO plug. The cable receiving member may then be attached to the NATO plug. The NATO plug may then be engaged to a NATO slave receptacle to create an electrical connection between the NATO slave receptacle and the cable. If desired, the NATO plug and receiving member can be easily detached from the cable and used with another cable.
