Abstract

This disclosure discusses an electrical jumper for equipotential electrical connection between devices. The electrical jumper may include a body and clamps optionally positioned on opposite ends of the body. The clamps include a series of interlacable multi-hinged fingers. Downward-facing fingers and upward-facing fingers extend away from the body. The downward-facing fingers may interlace with the upward-facing fingers when unclamped. When clamped, downward-facing fingers may interlace with the upward-facing fingers may alternate. The ends of the upward-facing fingers and downward-facing fingers may face inward toward the body. The fingers may move and hinge independently of one another along multiple hinges.
