Abstract
An outlet assembly includes an outlet having a pin extending from a bottom side of the outlet. Optionally, the pin extends from a shroud protruding from the bottom side of the outlet. The outlet assembly includes a heat dissipating structure having a wall with an inner surface facing an outer surface of the pin or an outer surface of the shroud. The outlet assembly includes a thermal pad positioned between the pin and the wall or the shroud and the wall. The heat dissipating structure applies a force to the thermal pad that presses the thermal toward the pin or the shroud. A PDU having an input module and an outlet module including the outlet assembly is also provided.
