Abstract:
A connector assembly includes a power connector having first and second power interfaces that interface with first and second power components. The power connector includes a shell forming a cavity and having a shell slot at the first power interface to receive the first power component. A power contact is received in the cavity that extends between the first power interface and the second power interface to electrically connect the first power component to a power circuit of the second power component. The connector assembly includes a sense connector separate and discrete from the power connector. The sense connector includes first and second sense interfaces configured to interface with the first and second power components. The sense connector includes a housing holding a sense contact and electrically isolating the sense contact from the shell. The sense contact electrically connect the first power component to a sense circuit of the second power component.
