An arrangement for forming an electrical connection to a thin, deflectable conductor, such as in a printed circuit tape, in which a pin is forced through an opening in the conductor to expand the opening to cause the conductor to overlie and bear against the surface of the pin, the conductor being held between dielectric members adjacent the pin to limit the part deflected. Adapters allow a single pin assembly to engage several tapes, while the pins may have ends that either directly engage conventional socket contacts or intermediate contacts which, in turn, mate with conventional contacts connected to wires.
