SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ALIGNING AND CONNECTING ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS

An electrical component assembly includes a first electrical component having a PCB mounted therein. The PCB includes a plurality of female sockets. A second electrical component includes a plurality of PCB engagement members and a plurality of pins. The first and second electrical components each include an alignment feature. The first and second electrical components are configured to be aligned and connected by progressively bringing together the first and second electrical components. In a first position, the first and second electrical components are spaced apart a first distance and the alignment features of the first and second electrical components are engaged. In a second position, the first and second electrical components are spaced apart a second distance and the PCB engagement members engage the PCB. In a third position, the first and second electrical components are spaced apart a third distance and the female sockets receive the pins.
