ELECTRICAL ASSEMBLY

Abstract:

An electrical assembly may include a bus bar assembly, a fuse connected to the bus bar assembly, a contactor connected to the bus bar assembly, a bracket connected to the bus bar assembly, and/or a cooling member connected to the bracket such that the fuse is indirectly connected to the cooling member via the bus bar assembly and the bracket. A method of operating an electrical assembly may include controlling the contactor to provide current from a power source to a load, generating heat via the current flowing through the fuse, conducting the heat from the fuse to the bus bar assembly, conducting the heat from the bus bar assembly to the cooling member, and/or dissipating the heat via the cooling member.
