Abstract: A canted coiled spring is used as a highly conductive, high current electrode between a printed circuit board and a conductive strip connected to a selected voltage. A conductive channel member has fixed therein a coil spring made of a highly conductive, metallic material. The canted coiled spring is fixed at each end so that it may be easily slid along an adjacent electrode of the power strip. The channel member holding the canted coiled spring is coupled to a printed circuit board with a clamped, highly conductive contact surface. The use of the coil spring in a channel member connected to a printed circuit board permits the printed circuit board to be easily slid into, and out of electrical contact with power carrying electrodes.
