Abstract
A power connector that provides a large tolerance for mating to a busbar. The connector has compliant mating contacts supported by a pivoting member. Upon insertion between two busbars, the compliant mating contacts compensate for a first amount of misalignment between the connector and the busbars. The contacts may pivot, compensating for an additional amount of misalignment.
