Abstract

An electrical equipment connector having a replaceable bushing for an electrical power connector is disclosed. The replaceable bushing includes an insulator body having a tapered exterior surface formed on the first end, and a tapered interior surface formed in a second end. A conductor body extends through the insulator body and has a through bore with a counterbore at one end. A captured bolt in the counterbore engages a threaded tap in a conductor body disposed in the housing such that the tapered interior surface fits over and conforms to a tapered exterior surface on the housing connector.
