Patent ID: 7814969

Claim:
A system for producing fluids from a hydrocarbon producing wellbore comprising: a string of tubing disposed within the wellbore; a pumping system deployable through the tubing and having a pump with fluid inlets, and a pump motor mechanically coupled to the pump; an annular downward extending skirt on a lower end of the motor, defining a pedestal connector with an inner cylindrical sidewall and a recessed downward-facing base at an upper end of the sidewall, a plurality of motor electrical contacts mounted to the base and spaced laterally apart from each other in a selected pattern relative to a longitudinal axis of the motor, the motor electrical contacts being surrounded by the skirt and in selective electrical communication with the pump motor; a power cable extending downward-between the cased wellbore and the tubing; a pedestal affixed within the tubing, the pedestal being an upright member having an outer cylindrical sidewall for reception within the pedestal connector and an upper end facing upward; a plurality of pedestal electrical contacts at the upper end of the pedestal and electrically connected with a lower end of the power cable, the pedestal electrical contacts being laterally spaced apart from each other relative to the longitudinal axis in a pattern that matches the pattern of the motor electrical contacts; and a profile on one of the cylindrical sidewalls and a guide pin on the other of the cylindrical sidewalls for orienting the motor electrical contacts with the pedestal electrical contacts.
