Abstract
An assembly, and methods of fabricating the assembly. The assembly has an electrical cable that has a number of separate conductors, a bundle of cable reinforcing strands, and an outer jacket surrounding all of the conductors and the bundle. The conductors and the bundle protrude from an end of the outer jacket. A stopper element surrounds the end of the outer jacket and the portions of the conductors and bundle where they protrude from the outer jacket. Distal ends of the conductors and the bundle protrude from the stopper element. The distal end of the bundle that protrudes from the stopper element is divided into multiple protruding bundle portions, and a first protruding bundle portion is wrapped at least partly around the stopper element in one direction and a second protruding bundle portion is wrapped at least partly around the stopper element in another direction.
