Anderson Power Debuts Power Clip Power Connector

Anderson Power Products (APP, Sterling, MA), a leader in developing power interconnect solutions for backup power systems, electric vehicles, UPS systems, telecommunications, and high-technology device industries, introduced its new Power Clip, the latest addition to its diversified family of electrical power connectors. Designed as a low-cost interconnection between two perpendicular power bus bars, the Power Clip is used in N+1 rectifier, power supply and switching power supply applications.

The high-performance contact of APP’s Power Clip provides low-voltage drop and amperage carrying capability. Because the clip accepts a solid 0.125 in thick nickel-plated or gold-plated rectangular bus bar tab, there is no need for a mating connector. Plus, the float-mount design enables the connector to be blind mated in the deepest racks.

The Power Clip has been evaluated to UL1977 and CSA standard C22.2 No. 182.3-M1987, and is rated for up to 300 A of continuous service. The product is also UL approved for true hot-plug current interruption of 100 A at 48 V and 200 A at 42 V using a gold bus bar tab.
