Abstract

An apparatus for electrically connecting two downhole components configured to be disposed in a borehole. The apparatus includes two complementing tool connectors which each have a corresponding electrical connector. The tool connectors may mate using a bayonet and slot connection. The slot may be L-shaped or l-shaped. The slot may be configured for straight or rotational engagement of the tool connectors. The electrical connectors may mate using concentric contacts that share the same axis. The electrical connectors are configured to rotate without stressing the contacts during assembly, disassembly, and drilling operations. The electrical connectors may support two or more contacts.
