An electrical connector assembly includes a connector housing defining a cavity and an opening providing access to the cavity, first and second direct current (DC) terminals disposed within the cavity, and first and second busbars electrically and mechanically attached directly to the first and second DC terminals respectively. The first and second busbars each have a rectangular cross section and wherein the first and second busbars extend through the opening such that portions of the first and second busbars are outside of the connector housing. A method of manufacturing an electrical connector assembly is also provided.

Hybrid electric charging inlet

An electrical connector assembly includes a connector housing in which a pair of electrically conductive busbars are disposed, a metallic cooling plate in thermal communication with major surfaces of the pair of electrically conductive busbars, and a dielectric structure that is configured to prevent electrical contact between the pair of electrically conductive busbars and the cooling plate.

Cooled inlet cold plate design for robust electrical isolation

An electrical connector includes a plurality of cylindrical electrical terminals connected to ends of a plurality of first electrical cables, a housing defining a plurality of housing terminal cavities in which the plurality of cylindrical electrical terminals is disposed, and a cover attached to the housing having a plurality of cover cavities that is axially aligned with the plurality of housing terminal cavities. The plurality of cover cavities is configured to receive the plurality of cylindrical electrical terminals as it is inserted within the plurality of housing terminal cavities.
