Abstract

A novel spacer assembly includes a body defining a bottom surface and a top surface opposite the bottom surface, a guide coupled to the top surface and extending along an axis, and a plurality of spacer elements movably coupled to the guide along the axis and being configured to receive a plurality of electrical leads therebetween. Each of the spacer elements extends above the top surface of the body and defines a predetermined width along the axis. When the leads are placed between the spacer elements, a spacing between adjacent ones of the leads corresponds to the predetermined width of the interposing spacer element. The predetermined width corresponds to a predefined electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) testing criteria. The spacer assembly facilitates rapid placement and accurate spacing of leads during initial EMC test setup or reconfiguration.
