Abstract
This invention relates to a system for interconnecting pluggable logic modules, for example in industrial automation or process control systems. The modules incorporate flexible connecting members which enable them to be plugged directly onto the ends of a series of parallel metal pins which are arranged in a regular pattern on one or more insulating supports, the pins having conductive portions intermediate their ends which are accessible from the side of the supports to which the modules are plugged, the said conductive portions of the pins being standarized so as to allow conductors which interconnect the modules to be readily attached to said sections.
