Header power connector

A header power connector comprising:

• a header housing assembly including an outer housing having an outer wall forming a cavity, the outer housing extending between a top and a bottom, the outer housing having a first side and a second side, the outer housing having a front and a rear, the outer housing configured to receive an upper busbar in the cavity through the top, the outer housing configured to receive a lower busbar in the cavity through the bottom, the header housing assembly including an inner housing received in the cavity, the inner housing including a terminal channel;
• a terminal assembly held in the terminal channel of the inner housing, the terminal assembly received in the cavity, the terminal assembly including a plurality of terminals arranged in a terminal stack, each terminal including an upper mating end having an upper socket configured to receive the upper busbar and a lower mating end having a lower socket configured to receive the lower busbar, the terminals configured to electrically connect the upper and lower busbars;
• a choke received in the cavity, the choke having a chock body surrounding the terminal assembly, the choke body having an opening therethrough receiving the terminal assembly;
• and
• a horizontal choke positioner in the cavity, the choke positioner interfacing with the choke to horizontally position the choke relative to the outer housing between the first side and the second side;
• a vertical choke positioner in the cavity, the choke positioner interfacing with the choke to vertically position the choke relative to the outer housing between the top and the bottom.

A power connector system comprising:

• an upper busbar for powering a first electrical component, the upper busbar having an upper busbar edge;
• a lower busbar for powering a second electrical component, the lower busbar having a lower busbar edge;
• and
• a header power connector for electrically connecting the upper busbar with the lower busbar to transfer power between the first and second electrical components, the header power connector comprising:
• a header housing assembly including an outer housing having an outer wall forming a cavity, the outer housing extending between a top and a bottom, the outer housing receiving the upper busbar in the cavity through the top, the outer housing receiving the lower busbar in the cavity through the bottom, the header housing assembly including an inner housing received in the cavity, the inner housing including a terminal channel;
• a terminal assembly held in the terminal channel of the inner housing, the terminal assembly received in the cavity, the terminal assembly including a plurality of terminals arranged in a terminal stack, each terminal including an upper mating end having an upper socket configured to receive the upper busbar and a lower mating end having a lower socket configured to receive the lower busbar, the terminals configured to electrically connect the upper and lower busbars;
• a choke received in the cavity, the choke having a chock body surrounding the terminal assembly, the choke body having an opening therethrough receiving the terminal assembly;
• and
• a choke positioner in the cavity, the choke positioner interfacing with the choke to position the choke relative to the outer housing.
