REPLACEABLE BUSHING FOR ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT

摘要

An electrical equipment connector having a replaceable bushing for an electrical power connector is disclosed. The replaceable bushing includes an insulator body having a tapered exterior surface formed on the first end, and a tapered interior surface formed in a second end. A conductor body extends through the insulator body and has a through bore with a counterbore at one end. A captured bolt in the counterbore engages a threaded tap in a conductor body disposed in the housing such that the tapered interior surface fits over and conforms to a tapered exterior surface on the housing connector.

主权项

1. A replaceable bushing for an electrical power connector comprising:
an insulator body having a first tapered surface formed on the first end, a second tapered surface formed in a second end; a conductor body disposed within the insulator body and having a through bore extending from a first end to a second end and a counterbore in the second end; a bolt having a head with a drive recess formed therein and a threaded body, the bolt being at least partially received in the counter bore; a retainer ring disposed in the counterbore at the second end of the conductor, wherein the head is captured in the counterbore and at least a portion of the threaded body can extend through the retainer ring; and a conductive cover extending over at least a portion of the insulator body; wherein the drive recess of the bolt head is accessible from the first end of the conductor body via the through bore.
