A connector having an elongated, multi-chamber, corrosion resistant, insulating, plastic housing provides for connecting a flexible power cable to equipment associated with a fixed device. One end of the housing is bolted to the fixed device. The opposite end and a central location of the housing have entrances for receiving bushings that may have a flexible power cable connected thereto. A floating adapter bushing is located between the busing and a recess in order to accommodate thermal expansion and contraction which may occur between equipment carrying the adapter and recess. The housing may include a vacuum interrupter or other suitable device. A plurality of the housings may be stacked together in order to provide for making combinations of selected parts and cables on a basis of unique requirements at a specific location.

1. An electrical power connector for connecting a flexible power cable to a fixed device, said connector comprising:a housing made of insulating material and having an open end and at least one entrance remote from said open end, means associated with said open end for securing said insulated housing to a fixed device, a conductive part at said entrance of said housing, said conductive part having a recess therein, a bushing adapted to be attached to the entrance of said housing for making an electrical connection between said conductive part and an external flexible cable, a bridging adapter for electrically connecting said flexible cable to said conductive part, said bridging adapter being adapted for sliding movement in said recess when said bushing is attached to said entrance in order to accommodate expansion and contraction caused by temperature changes; and means for completing an electrical connection between said conductive part at said entrance and another part associated with said fixed device.
