ABSTRACT:
The power system for an aircraft includes a gear box. Multiple generators are driven by the gear box and are arranged in a circumferentially spaced manner, in one example. Each generator includes a power interconnect block providing a receptacle that receives an electrical lead. The receptacle provides a metallic insert having a hole that receives a connector arranged at an end of the electrical lead. The connectors are inserted into the hole in a direction that is generally parallel with an axis of rotation of a shaft of the generator. An axial retainer is secured between the electrical connector and the power interconnect block to axially locate the connector within the power interconnect block. A spring washer is arranged at a base of the hole to exert an axial force on the connector biasing it against the axial retainer.
