Abstract:
1. An electrical conductor mechanism for an electrical bus assembly of a power distribution system, said electrical bus assembly comprising a plurality of stabs, said power distribution system including a number of electrical switching apparatus, said electrical conductor mechanism comprising: at least one planar member including a first side and a second side opposite the first side, the first side being structured to be attached to a corresponding one of said stabs, the second side being structured to be electrically connected to a corresponding one of said electrical switching apparatus, thereby electrically connecting said corresponding one of said electrical switching apparatus to said electrical bus assembly, wherein each of said stabs has a plurality of contact surfaces, wherein said at least one planar member is a plurality of planar members, wherein each of said planar members is structured to be attached to a corresponding one of said contact surfaces, wherein each of said stabs has a first segment structured to receive a corresponding one of said electrical switching apparatus, and a second segment structured to receive another corresponding one of said electrical switching apparatus; wherein a first one of said planar members is disposed on the first segment; and wherein a second one of said planar members is disposed on the second segment, and wherein each of the first segment and the second segment includes a first contact surface and a second contact surface disposed opposite the first contact surface; wherein said first one of said planar members is disposed on the first contact surface of said first segment; and wherein said second one of said planar members is disposed on the second contact surface of said second segment.
