TAP SHOE ASSEMBLY FOR USE WITH WIRE TERMINAL STRIPS

摘要

A gang connector for temporary use in making simultaneous connection to a multiplicity of pairs of conductors permanently soldered to the separate terminals of a terminal strip. The connector includes simple, positive means housed therein for making or breaking contact between any selected pair of conductors and terminals carried by the connector and readily connectable to cabling equipped with separable coupling means mateable with these terminals. The connector is specially designed with conductor prongs insertable into the test probe wells of individual line protectors customarily present on wire terminal strips. Guard strips extend along either side of these conductor prongs and include adjustable means for clamping the connector assembled to the terminal strip via its line protectors.
