Abstract
A power connector includes a shunting bar which will shunt the terminals of one mating member prior to unmating of the connector and maintain the shunt condition during the initial phases of mating of the connector. This connector finds particular use where it is desirable to shunt the secondary of a current transformer when a control module is removed. Likewise the connector can be used to insure discharge of capacitance from associated circuitry thereby making them safe to handle.
