The clamping portion is configured to impart a clamping force in a third direction toward the second busbar when the second busbar is disposed between the clamping portion and the first busbar. The connector also includes a second mounting portion coupled to the clamping portion, the second mounting portion arranged to be coupled to the first busbar to fixedly hold the second busbar between the clamping portion and the first busbar and to electrically couple the second busbar to the first busbar.
