Abstract
An electrical connection component for a machine cable is described. The electrical connection component is suitable for transmission of power with voltage levels greater than or equal to 1 kV and comprises at least one electrical conductor arranged for electrically coupling with a further electrical conductor of another electrical connection component. The electrical connection component comprises a housing having an internal region, and having a machine cable end, a connection end and a plurality of electrically insulating components positioned within the housing, at least one of the electrically insulating components being arranged so as to form-fit with a further one of the electrically insulating components. A portion of the internal region of the housing that is located at the connection end of the housing, and that would not otherwise be filled with the at least one electrical conductor and/or an associated flame path, is filled by the electrically insulating components.
