Abstract: A pivot system for use with a stowage bin system in a mobile platform (for example, a commercial aircraft) is provided, where the pivot system enables electrical communication between structure pivotally supporting the bin, and electrical components on the bin. The pivot system includes a pivot boss including an engagement extension and a race assembly including a socket. The socket of the race assembly is for receipt of the engagement extension to couple the pivot boss to the race assembly. The pivot system further includes at least one conductor coupled to at least one of the pivot boss and race assembly to enable electrical communication between the pivot base and the race assembly. The system, thus, enables electrical communication between the pivot boss and the race assembly without requiring external wiring.
