Abstract
An electrical power connector having a housing that substantially surrounds a mounting body. The mounting end of the mounting body extends beyond the end of the housing so that when the electrical connector is mounted on a back plane there is a gap between the end of the housing and the back plane which allows the electrical power connector freedom to pivot with respect to the back plane so as to accommodate misalignment between the electrical power connector and its mating connector and to provide a better electrical connection. An electrically conducting arm is also provided that can be inserted into the mounting body of the electrical power connector to convert the electrical power connector from a female connector to a male connector.
