Abstract
A jumper assembly which includes a housing assembly and two or more bus assemblies. The housing assembly has a planar member, a plurality of lower side walls and plurality of upper side walls. The housing assembly planar member has an upper side and a lower side. The lower side walls forming a plurality of bus assembly raceways. The two or more bus assemblies each have a planar member and two terminal ends. The bus assembly planar members are disposed in the lower raceways adjacent to and parallel to the housing assembly planar member lower side. Thus, the bus assemblies are in a single plane.
