Abstract
An electrical conductor includes at least one first terminal and at least one second terminal spaced apart by a middle segment configured to support conductance of an electric current between the at least one first terminal and the at least one second terminal. The middle segment includes at least one integrated heat sink.
Claims25
An electrical conductor comprising:
- at least one first terminal that is a first end;
- at least one second terminal that is a second end;
- and
- a middle segment configured to space apart the first end from the second end, and to support conductance of an electric current between the at least one first terminal and the at least one second terminal,
- wherein the middle segment includes at least one integrated heat sink.
