Abstract

A system for testing a microcircuit having a center ground (CG) terminal has an insert for electrically connecting the CG terminal to a ground contact on a load board. The insert is held within a housing by compression and frictional interaction between a resilient projection carried by the insert and a slot in a wall of an aperture holding the insert.
