Power connector assembly including a power contact having a base portion and opposing contact springs that project from the base portion along a mating axis. The contact springs oppose each other across a receiving space and are configured to engage a common conductive component that is inserted into the receiving space in a direction along the mating axis. The power connector assembly also includes an alignment body that has a support plate and a coupling member that engages and holds the power contact. The support plate includes an elongated slot and a contact window. The coupling member holds the power contact in a designated position relative to the support plate, wherein the base portion extends into the contact window when in the designated position and the contact springs extend along and substantially parallel to the elongated slot when in the designated position.
