Abstract

Multi-terminal position connector with a row of terminals in which selected terminals are electrically connected together by a conductive strip formed with the terminals as a single one piece unit. Preferably the selected terminals each has a base which connects a box terminal end and an insulation displacement terminal end and the conductive strip extends integrally from the base. Also included is a method of making the connector in which the selected terminals are inserted into their terminal position after the other terminals have been inserted, the selected terminals being inserted with the conductive strip as a one piece unit.
