Abstract:
A system includes a housing (105) that includes one or more ports (113) through which electrical connections to one or more electronic components situated within the housing can be made from exterior of the housing. At least one enclosure bushing (204) is coupled to at least one port. The enclosure bushing includes a cylindrical service jacket receiver (207) defining a lumen (208), a flange (212) abutting a portion of the housing, and one or more lugs (216,217,302,303) extending from a portion of the cylindrical service jacket receiver. A coupling nut (205) having one or more circumferential lug receivers (702,703,704,805) applies a compression force to the frustoconical weather gasket when the one or more lugs engaging the locking notch (708) of the one or more circumferential lug receivers.
