- the invention relates to a set of connectors each of which is capable of connecting a cable conductor to a knife belonging to a fuse or to a conducting bar.
- the invention also relates to a method of manufacturing such a connector.
- connectors for connecting upstream and downstream cables via a fuse or a conductive bar whose knives are respectively engaged in the jaws provided on these connectors. It is known, for example from FR-A-1,359,746, FR-A-2,817,400 and FR-A-2,848,732, to define in a connector a receiving volume or cage of the end of a cable. to be connected, while a clamping screw is arranged to press this end against a perforation toothing of the insulating sheath. In these connectors, the jaws are defined to each receive a knife belonging to the fuse or the associated driver bar.
- a connection connector can be integrated in various electrical circuits, to the point that the intensity that passes through it can be very variable, for example between 10 and 100 amperes (A).
- the current connectors are sometimes differentiated according to the maximum intensity of the current supposed to cross them, this intensity being more often called "nominal intensity". This differentiation requires the provision of connectors with different constructions, which increases the cost of a set of connectors that can be used in circuits where the intensity of the current can vary.
- some connectors are oversized when they are mounted in circuits of low amperage or may be insufficiently dimensioned when mounted in circuits of high amperage.
- the invention intends to remedy more particularly by proposing a new set of connectors whose different connectors can be chosen according to the amperage provided for the circuit in which they are intended to be integrated.

- This set of connectors is characterized in that the jaw of each connector is formed by a plate of electrically conductive material, which constitutes one of the branches of this jaw, and an elastically deformed blade, which constitutes the other branch of this jaw, and in that the electric conduction properties of the plate are variable from one conductor to the other, as a function of the nominal current through this connector.
- a set of connectors may incorporate one or more of the following features:
- the average thickness of the plate varies from one connector to another, depending on the intensity aforementioned nominal. In this case, this thickness is advantageously between 0.5 and 3.5 mm for a nominal intensity of between 10 and 100 A. In particular, this average thickness may be equal to 2 mm for a nominal intensity of 60 A and 3 mm for a nominal density of 90 A.
- the material constituting the plate is variable from one connector to the other, depending on the aforementioned nominal intensity.
- the electrical conduction properties of the neutral connector plate are different from the electrical conduction properties of the plates of the other connectors.
- the thickness and / or the constituent material of the plate of the neutral connector is / are different (s) from the thickness and / or material constituting the plate of the other connectors.
- the thickness of the plate is, for some connectors at least, greater in certain areas of this plate than in the rest of this plate.
- the plate and the blade of each connector also together form the receiving cage of a conductor end.
- the plate and the blade are attached to this cage.
- the plate may be provided with a toothed portion received inside the cage and intended to perforate an insulating sheath of a conductor end.
- the invention also relates to a method of manufacturing a connector of the type of connectors mentioned above. This method is characterized in that it comprises steps of: - Select, according to the nominal intensity of the connector, an electrically conductive plate and integrate this plate to this connector to form one of the branches of the connector jaw.

- Another way of varying these electrical conduction properties can be used in conjunction with or in place of the variation of the thickness of the plate 11. It consists in playing on the nature of the material constituting this plate, in particular on the composition of an alloy in which this plate is formed.
- the plate 11 of a connector 10 '' intended to be connected to a neutral cable may have a thickness substantially smaller than that of the plates of the phase conductors, as represented in FIG. 8.
