Abstract

A bridging clip is provided for telephone circuits and the like comprising a pair of sheet metal legs initially converging, and diverging at the extremities to facilitate application of the bridging clip. Pairs of ribs which are relatively crossed are provided on the inner confronting surfaces of the legs at the areas of inflection between the converging and diverging portions of the legs, thereby increasing contact pressure and minimizing contact resistance.
