Abstract:
1. A connector for a multi-conductor cable carrying electrically conductive external armouring, the connector comprising: a rigid conductive socket body and a conductive earthing member, the socket body being designed to receive a multi-conductor plug and comprising at least one wall element conformed so as to be in contact with this plug, the earthing member comprising a band at least partially gripping the armouring and an electrically conductive elongate element connecting the band to the socket body in order to take the wall element to the electrical potential of the armouring, characterised in that the band takes the form of an open elastic clamp designed so as to be forcibly fitted on the armouring, in that the elongate element is flexible, and in that the elastic clamp comprises two wings with a partially circular transverse section, symmetrical with each other and having respective free ends at which the two wings are separated from each other.
