Patent

CA 2476443

Methods and apparatuses for electrically connecting a medical glucose monitor (21) to a glucose sensor set (20), as well as for testing the operation of the glucose monitor, monitor cable (10) and glucose sensor set are provided. In one embodiment, an electric cable comprises a cable member (13), a first connector (11) and a second connector (12). The cable member in turn comprises at least one insulated conductor, a conductive shielding layer disposed around the at least one insulated conductor, and an insulating layer disposed around the conductive shielding layer. A glucose monitoring system test plug provides for a releasable electrical connection with the electric cable. In one embodiment, the test plug comprises a housing and a fitting affixed thereto which is adapted to electrically couple the test plug with the electric cable. The test plug further includes an electrical circuit that produces a signal that is read by the glucose monitor to test the operational performance of the glucose monitor and the electric cable when the test plug is coupled to the electric cable and when the electric cable is coupled to the glucose monitor.
