Abstract

A wiring module for electrically connecting a plurality of electric parts disposed on an equipment frame to a source of electric power, the module comprising an elongated insulating substrate formed to extend along a path adjacent to electric parts disposed on the frame. A pattern of wiring conductors extends along and integral with the insulating substrate for conducting electric current from the source of electric power to each of the electric parts to be connected. The insulating substrate has one or more edge portions provided with protrusions integrally formed with the substrate and extending laterally therefrom. The protrusions each are positioned on the insulating substrate at a location adjacent an electric part to be connected and at least a portion of the wiring conductors are integral with the protrusions to provide a contact on the protrusions for connection to corresponding electric parts.
