Abstract

L'invention concerne un appareil de raccordement destiné à être couplé à un conducteur ou un câble et, plus particulièrement, un appareil de raccordement haute fréquence approprié pour des signaux de télécommunication diffusés, au moins partiellement, par des câbles de distribution de puissance. En conséquence, dans un premier aspect, l'invention concerne un appareil de raccordement conçu pour être couplé à un câble électrique (2), qui comporte un élément conducteur isolé électriquement (1). L'appareil de raccordement comporte un dispositif de pénétration d'isolation (3) du câble destiné à pénétrer le câble électrique afin d'établir une connexion électrique avec l'élément conducteur, le dispositif de pénétration (3) étant électriquement connecté à un élément de raccordement (5) conçu pour être connecté à une source ou à un récepteur de signaux de télécommunication. De cette manière, un élément de raccordement conçu pour être connecté à une source ou à un récepteur de signaux de télécommunication peut être électriquement connecté au noyau conducteur d'un câble de puissance ou à un autre type de conducteur.
