  • Patent number: 11563296
    Abstract: A track busway power distribution unit including a housing, a power input coupled with the housing and connectable to an electrical busway, a securement mechanism moveably coupled to the housing and structured to secure the power distribution unit to the electrical busway, and at least one outlet module located at least partially within the housing. The outlet module can include at least one outlet core having a core outer surface configured to mate within a first connector type. The outlet core can include a plurality of electrical terminals each coupled to the power input and configured to connect with mating terminals corresponding to both the first connector type and a second connector type that is different than the first connector type. A removable shroud can be positioned around the outlet core, wherein the shroud includes a shroud inner surface configured to receive the first connector type.
