A method and electrical connection for providing electrical power is disclosed. The electrical connection comprises an electrical connector connected to an electrical conductor assembly. A current greater than a rated current capacity of at least one of the electrical connector and electrical conductor assembly may be passed through the electrical conductor assembly and electrical connector. The electrical connector and electrical conductor may be actively cooled with a flow of heat transfer medium flowing substantially along a length of the electrical conductor assembly and through the electrical connector to increase the current capacity of the electrical connection.
