A device for coupling nerve cuff electrodes for stimulating nerves to a signal source for applying electrical signals for activation. The device comprises a carrier plate composed of a non-conductive material which contains a series of grooves for receiving selected nerve trunks. On either side of each groove is located a slot along the length of the groove, and a plurality of contacts are embedded within each groove. The contacts are releasably coupled to a power source which supplies a stimulating signal to the nerves. A spiral cuff electrode is wrapped through the slots to secure the nerve within the contact and provide for electrical conduction.
