Zusammenfassung:An electrical connector (110) comprises a contact button (112) having a first layer (116) comprising a first electrically conductive material that is attached to a first electrical bus bar (114), a second layer (118) comprising a second electrically conductive material, and a third layer (120) comprising a third electrically conductive material intermediate to the first and second layers (116, 118) and clad to the first and second layers (116, 118). The electrical connector (10) further comprises a clamp assembly (124) including a retaining band (126) surrounding the contact button (112) and the first electrical bus bar (114) and having a spring (128) configured to provide a contact force between the contact button (112) and a second electrical bus bar (130) when the second electrical bus bar (130) is disposed between the contact button (112) and the spring (128).
