Abstract
A connection apparatus includes a fixed board assembly and a selector board assembly. The fixed board assembly including a fixed board including a center axis and a plurality of contact pairs attached to the fixed board, each of a generator winding in electrical continuity with at least one of the plurality of contact pairs. The selector board assembly is rotatably mounted on the fixed board assembly and includes a selector board and a plurality of jumpers attached to the selector board. The plurality of jumpers are shaped and arranged on the selector board to electrically bridge at least one of the contact pairs to provide a first voltage output in a first configuration and a second voltage output in a second configuration. The second configuration is produced by rotating the selector board assembly relative to the fixed board assembly about the center axis from the first configuration.
