Claims21
1-20. (canceled)
A fuel cell assembly comprising:
- an end plate having an orifice therethrough;
- a fuel cell having an active area;
- an intermediate plate having an orifice therethrough and a recess, the intermediate plate positioned between the end plate and the fuel cell and positioned such that the recess faces the fuel cell;
- and
- a busplate residing in the recess, the busplate having a planar portion substantially coextensive with the active area and a connecting portion adapted to electrically connect the fuel cell assembly to a load, the connecting portion extending from the planar portion and through the orifices in the intermediate plate and the end plate.
