ABSTRACT:
A main electrical lead of an electrical generator has an electrical conductor or main lead bushing which transmits electrical current produced by the generator to electrical loads external to the generator. The electrical conductor and the main electrical lead are electrically connected by a mechanical connector and a spring mechanism. The spring mechanism provides a force on the mechanical connector to maintain the conductor and the main lead in sufficient electrical contact so that they can transmit the requisite electrical current. A method of installing the spring mechanism is also provided and includes removing the electrical conductor from the main electrical lead and installing the spring mechanism under pressure betweeen the conductor and the main lead. The electrical conductor is then again mechanically connected to the main electrical lead.
