Abstract: A hinged busbar assembly includes a first mounting busbar configured to be electrically and mechanically connected to the first component at a fixed connection, a second mounting busbar configured to be electrically and mechanically connected to the second component at a fixed connection, and at least two extension busbars extending between the first and second mounting busbars. Adjacent extension busbars are electrically and mechanically connected to each other at a pivotal connection. One of the at least two extension busbars is electrically and mechanically connected to the first mounting busbar at a pivotal connection, and another one of the at least two extension busbars is electrically and mechanically connected to the second mounting busbar at a pivotal connection. Each pivotal connection includes at least one extension extending from each adjacent busbar and at least one electrical contact mounted in each extension, and a pin inserted through the electrical contacts.

Abstract: A connector assembly that includes an electrical connector and an electrically conductive busbar. The connector can include a housing that defines a receptacle, a first row of at least one power contact, and a second row of at least one power contact at a location spaced from the first row along a first direction. Each power contact of the first and second rows can define at least two mating ends that are at least partially disposed in the receptacle so as to define a slot that extends between the mating ends of the first row and the mating ends of the second row. The housing can include a first attachment member. The electrically conductive busbar can include a first end, a second end opposite the first end, and an attachment member that is configured to mate with the first attachment member so as to attach the busbar to the housing.

Abstract: In accordance with one embodiment, an electrical connector includes a housing that supports a plurality of electrical contacts. Each electrical contact defines a mating end and an opposing mounting end, and a plurality of mounting terminals disposed at the mounting end. The mounting terminals of each contact are arranged in at least one column extending along a longitudinal direction, such that each column is spaced along a lateral direction, and the mounting terminals of adjacent contacts are longitudinally offset.
