Abstract
Power distribution systems and methods for adaptation of the power distribution to computer systems to varying electrical loads and/or varying power supply inputs are disclosed. The power distribution system generally includes power connectors and power distribution terminals, each terminal is connected to a group of the power connectors configured to carry electrical power to electronics components of the computing system. The terminals may be selectively divisible into sets of grouping combinations, each grouping combination within each set corresponding to approximately the same number of power connectors. The terminals may be configured to be connected to power supply circuits in accordance with the selected set of grouping combinations.
