Abstract: An outlet module including a module housing comprising a base surface and a sidewall extending therefrom to at least partially surround an interior region. Multiple outlet cores extend from the base surface and at least one latch lever is pivotably coupled to the sidewall and adjacent a corresponding one of the multiple outlet cores. The latch lever is moveable between a first position, wherein the at least one latch lever is capable of engaging a mating plug and a second position, wherein the at least one latch lever is disengaged from the plug.

Abstract: A manufacturing method is disclosed herein. The method includes arranging a preform over a surface of an inner mold line; folding the preform over sides of the inner mold line; pressing an end of the preform into a grip strip coupled to a side of the inner mold line; and applying pressure to the preform to force excess material of the preform into a forming bead of the inner mold line.

Abstract: A power distribution unit including a plurality of outlet cores arranged along an outlet panel of a housing and mounted to one or more circuit boards with an unobstructed space between adjacent pairs of the plurality of outlet cores. The outlet cores each extend a portion of the distance between the circuit boards and the outlet panel, and the outlet panel includes a plurality of apertures each corresponding to an associated one of the plurality of outlet cores. One or more overcurrent protection devices are mounted in a non-outlet panel aligned along the length of the housing.

Abstract: A combination outlet connector is disclosed. The combination outlet connector includes an outlet core having three T-shaped apertures. The outlet core has a core outer surface to mate with a first connector type, such as a C14 connector, and electrical terminals are positioned in corresponding apertures. A removable adapter sleeve is positionable around the outlet core and has a sleeve outer surface to mate with a second connector type, such as a C20 connector. The adapter sleeve includes a sleeve aperture at least partially congruent with the core outer surface. The electrical terminals are configured to connect with mating terminals of the first and second connector types. A removable adapter shroud can be positioned around the outlet core. The shroud includes a shroud inner surface to receive the first connector type and a shroud flange having a shroud aperture at least partially congruent with the core outer surface.
