Power distribution system
A power distribution system includes a plurality of wires extending between a first end and a second end. The wires extend continuously between the first and second ends, Each wire includes an electrical conductor and an insulation layer. The power distribution system further includes a receptacle selectively positionable at any position along a length of the wires. The power receptacle includes a housing defining at least one power outlet. A plurality of connection members is positioned within the housing. Each connection member includes a first end and a second end. The first end is configured to contact the electrical conductors within the insulation layers of the plurality of wires for electrically connecting the plurality of connection members to the plurality of wires. The second end is configured to electrically connect the plurality of connection members to the at least one power outlet.

Electrical connector assembly
An electrical connector assembly includes a first connector and a second connector mateable with each other wherein each of the first connector and the second connector has an insulative housing essentially composed of a bottom wall, a side wall and a pair of end walls wherein all the bottom wall and the side wall are rectangular while the end walls are right triangular. The first connector and he second connector are coupled with each other in a complementary manner with the corresponding hypotenuses of the right triangles confronting each other. A sealing member of a frame structure is located at an interface between the coupled edges of the housings in an oblique manner.
Electrical connector with hermaphroditic terminal and housing
A power connector assembly with hermaphroditic power connectors. The housing and the terminals of first and second mating power connectors may have like mating interfaces. The first power connector may include a plurality of first terminals, where the mating portion of each first terminal of the plurality of first terminals includes a first flat portion, and a first bent portion coupled to the first flat portion and including a first set of fingers parallel to the first flat portion. The second power connector may include a plurality of second terminals, where each second terminal of the plurality of second terminals includes a mating portion with a second flat portion, and a second bent portion coupled to the second flat portion and including a second set of fingers parallel to the second flat portion.

Power connector
A connector is disclosed including a housing and a pair of terminals. Each terminal includes a U shaped body portion and a mounting portion formed at the first end of the body portion with a bent contacting portion disposed at a therebetween. A wire securing portion is formed at the second end of the body portion with a pair of crimping portions to secure the wire to the terminal. The body portion and the mounting portion are received in a slots formed in the housing with the contacting portion extending through a window formed in the housing and the terminal mounting portion being translatable within the slot. A TPA device is secured to the housing that blocks the terminal from being removed from the housing.

HIGH OUTPUT UV STERILIZATION MODULE WITH ENVIRONMENTAL FEEDBACK AND STERILIZATION OPTIMIZATION
An elongated lighting module having an asymmetric illumination source formed from at least two rows of light emitting diodes (LEDs) that extend along the long axis of the module and are independently controllable. The illumination source is rectangular and oriented so that the rows of LEDs extend along the long axis of the module. The module has couplings at each end that allow additional modules to be interconnected therewith using a linking member and a clamp. The lighting modules are powered via a wiring harness that extends down a support pole to a power converter stack having LED drivers to control the modules.
