preconnected products
Compare the Swedish and English pages from a supplier of fibersvanar/pigtails at the references. This supplier uses "preconnected" for "förkontakterade." I think "fabrikskontakterade" is used much less frequently but means the same thing. See a usage from a trade forum poster who states at http://support.elot.se/forum/externa-forum/1204-maerkapparat... "Våra kablar är ofta Fabrikskontakterade, varför det inte går att trä något över kabeln."
("Insvetsning" is splicing here.)
