Abstract

An electrical bushing connects a power distribution component with a power line. The electrical bushing includes a connection terminal that is configured to connect with the power distribution component. A core component of the electrical bushing defines a socket that is configured to receive a contact pin associated with the power line. The electrical bushing also includes a radial interposer spring that is configured to complete an electrical connection between the contact pin and the core component when the contact pin is inserted into the socket.
