Abstract

A multiple reed switch module includes multiple reed switches aligned in fixed, spacial relation by thermoplastic side rails attached to the switch leads, with lead ends extending perpendicularly from the leads in parallel relation. The side rails function as a spacing mechanism and facilitate handling of the switches, and the efficient insertion of the multiple parallel lead ends in circuit board assemblies.
