Abstract: An integrated power rack for use in a data center is provided. The integrated power rack includes a top, a base, a first side and a second side extending between the base and the top, a back member extending between the top, the base, the first side, and the second side, a divider extending from the top to the base, the divider positioned between the first side and the second side, a revenue sub-compartment defined between the first side and the divider, the revenue sub-compartment configured to receive a plurality of revenue producing devices, and a power sub-compartment defined between the second side and the divider, the power sub-compartment housing power equipment that is configured to provide direct-current (DC) power to the revenue sub-compartment.

Abstract: A power distribution rack includes a chassis that defines a first slot and a second slot adjacent the first slot. The power distribution rack also includes a plurality of electronics modules including a first module coupled within the first slot and a second module coupled within the second slot. A central bus bar assembly is coupled to the chassis and includes an outer bus bar including a first flange, a second flange, and a first bus plate extending therebetween. The first and second flanges and the first bus plate define a first channel. The bus bar assembly further includes an inner bus bar coupled within the first channel. The inner bus bar includes a third flange, a fourth flange, and a second bus plate extending therebetween. The first and third flanges are coupled to the first module and the second and fourth flanges are coupled to the second module.

Abstract: An apparatus for effecting electrical connection between a power source and equipment includes: (a) a first conductor having a first aperture; (b) a second conductor having a second aperture; (c) an insulator having a connecting bore coaxial with the first and second apertures to establish a bridging passage extending a bridging distance to traverse the first conductor, the insulator and the second conductor when assembled with the first conductor and the second conductor substantially parallel separated by the insulator; and (d) a bridge having an axial length at least equal with the bridging distance and a transaxial dimension less than the passage diameter and having a first engagement structure in the first aperture and a second engagement structure in the second aperture when the bridge is engaged; the bridge is removable from engagement to interrupt electrical connection between the power source and the equipment.
