Abstract

An assembly is disclosed for bridging pairs of closely spaced electrical terminals having a variety of predetermined spacings. The assembly consists of a pair of identical insulative body parts which have cavities therein for housing two identical contacts and conductive devices connected between the contacts. The contacts and the conductive devices are connected together and inserted into appropriate cavities of a first body part, whereupon the second body part is snapped together and sealed with the first body part. A cantilevered contact mount enables the contacts to deflect and mate with connector blocks having split blade-like metallic terminals of various predetermined spacings.
