MICC cable and earth tag

psychicwarrior
Good morning


Have you ever seen/used an earth tag ('banjo') used with a MICC cable gland fitted into a painted enclosure (no paint removal) - similar to the SWA approach ?


Thank you

    The modern way is probably the  pirahna nut.   example here   Using a banjo sounds as you say, rather like an SWA kit re-purposed for pyro. - I suppose in some odd situations  it may make sense on a box that has an insulating coating that for some reason cannot be breached.   It is unusual,  I certainly don't think I have ever seen it, and would not be keen to do it.
