A method of polarizing a female pin conductor receiving connector and an apparatus for performing said method. The female connector has a plurality of pin receiving openings formed in the housing thereof so that a pin conductor may be received therethrough for mating with a terminal mounted inside the housing. The polarizing method comprises deforming a portion of the housing adjacent the pin receiving opening to define a deformed section whereby the opening is substantially closed by the deformed section to prevent a pin conductor from being received therethrough. The apparatus includes means for holding the connector in a given disposition and punch means having an end engageable with the housing for deforming and moving a portion thereof in order to close the opening.
