A locking bracket system for a pair of line replaceable modules (LRMs) includes a locking bracket assembly including an expanding member configured to be actuated to expand; and an extension bracket attached to the expanding member. The extension bracket extends from the expanding member in a direction opposite that the expanding member expands. Each of the expanding member and the extension bracket are configured to compress against a LRM to retain the pair of LRMs to a chassis when the expanding member is in an expanded position.

A bus bar for a printed wiring board assembly has a distribution portion and a supply portion. The supply portion has a socket contact that is in electrical communication with the distribution portion without an intervening joint portion to limit electrical resistance between a supply plug seated in the socket contact and the distribution portion of the bus bar. Printed wiring board assemblies, power distribution assemblies, and methods of making printed distribution assemblies are also described.
