US Patent 9362663 Replaceable bushing for electrical equipment

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.
