Abstract
An electrical interface arrangement includes a first buss bar, and a feed through connector fixed to the first buss bar. A second buss bar extends through the feed through connector, and is slidable relative thereto. The feed through connector electrically couples the first buss bar to the second buss bar as the second buss bar is slid through the feed through connector.

14. A feed through buss bar connector, comprising:
-
a housing having a hole that extends therethrough and which defines a space within said housing that accommodates a sliding buss bar; and
at least one conductor member disposed at least partially within the space and to a side of the hole so as to allow the buss bar to extend entirely through said housing by way of the hole, said conductor member being continuously electrically engageable with the buss bar as the buss bar is slid through said housing. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A computer, comprising:
-
a chassis;
at least one drawer attached to said chassis, said drawer being slidable to an open position in which the drawer is disposed substantially external to said chassis;
at least one circuit board disposed within said drawer;
a power supply located external to said drawer; and
an electrical interface arrangement for conveying power between said power supply and said circuit board, comprising;
at least one first buss bar electrically coupled to said power supply; and
at least one second buss bar electrically coupled to said first buss bar and to said circuit board, said first and second buss bars being slidable relative to each other while maintaining an electrical coupling therebetween when said drawer is slid to the opened position. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30)
