Abstract

Various embodiments provide a stackable deformable electrical connector system including a plug body and a connector body each having at least one of studs and jacks with angled and/or misaligned axes. A deformation of one or more of a plug body, studs, jacks, and a connector body or another stackable connector is created when plugging together the angled studs and jacks. The deformation creates resultant forces between the studs and jacks for electrical contact. The connectors may integrate deformable bars in the connector body, locking features and features to ensure polarity. The studs and jacks may be solid metal corrosive-resistant parts, such as titanium, Hastelloy, or Inconel.
