    摘要: A connector assembly includes a power connector having first and second power interfaces that interface with first and second power components. The power connector includes a shell forming a cavity and having a shell slot at the first power interface to receive the first power component. A power contact is received in the cavity that extends between the first power interface and the second power interface to electrically connect the first power component to a power circuit of the second power component. The connector assembly includes a sense connector separate and discrete from the power connector. The sense connector includes first and second sense interfaces configured to interface with the first and second power components. The sense connector includes a housing holding a sense contact and electrically isolating the sense contact from the shell. The sense contact electrically connect the first power component to a sense circuit of the second power component.

    摘要: A surface functional system for a flat-type power supply in a low-voltage range includes a carrier system and a plurality of flat longitudinal electric conductor paths, wherein at least one flat electric conductor path is provided on the front or rear face of the carrier system or is integrated into the carrier system. An electric contact strip contains a first and a second electrically conductive conductor strip which run adjacently to each other. The first and second conductor strips are respectively connectable to first and second poles of a DC voltage source. The first conductor strip has contact points for an electrically conductive connection of a first set of flat electric conductor paths to the first electrically conductive conductor strip, and the second conductor strip has contact points for an electrically conductive connection of a second set of flat electric conductor paths to the second electrically conductive conductor strip.

    摘要: An adapter is introduced into a rail during formation of the lighting arrangement, to receive electrical energy from a conductor device provided in a region of the rail when the lighting arrangement is in an operating state, and to supply an assembly, which can be electrically coupled to the adapter during formation of the lighting arrangement, with electrical energy for the operation of light-generating devices in the operating state. The adapter comprises a rotational connector and can be electrically coupled by means of a rotational movement of the rotational connector to a plurality of electrical phases provided by the conductor device. The adapter comprises a device for phase selection, by means of which the assembly electrically coupled to the adapter can be electrically coupled to a selectable one of the phases provided by the conductor device and electrically coupled to the adapter.

    摘要: A power feeder device can include a base having a mounting portion and a plurality of connector structures extending from the mounting portion and spaced apart relative to each other to form a respective gap therebetween. Each connector structure can be configured to receive a respective pair of terminals to electrically connect the respective pair of terminals within connector structures and to block a line of sight between an adjacent pair of terminals. The device can also include a cover configured to mate with the base to enclose each of the plurality of connector structures and to increase a length of a creepage path between each pair of terminals by at least partially inserting into each gap between the connector structures. The base and the cover can be configured to form a terminal opening on each lateral side when assembled to allow pass-through of a conductor and/or portion of each terminal.

    摘要: An electrical bus bar assembly includes an elongate flexible electrical conductor formed of a strip of electrically conductive material having a generally rectangular cross section and a width to thickness ratio of at least 20:1 and a dielectric material covering a central portion of the electrical conductor such that the electrical conductor has exposed distal portions at each end of the assembly. Further, a method for forming such as assembly includes the steps of forming a flexible strip from an electrically conductive sheet such that the strip has a generally rectangular cross section with a width to thickness ratio of at least 20:1 and covering a central portion of the strip with a dielectric material and leaving distal portions at each end exposed.
