Abstract: A ganged modular electrical shunt for use in programming electric/electronic equipment is disclosed which comprises a multiplicity of electrically insulating, substantially rectangular housing blocks, each of which includes a base, a top, and two end walls, and a pair of elongated, substantially parallel, electrically conducting terminals secured to and extending outwardly from the base. The housing blocks each have a dove-tail shaped portion extending from the outer surface of the base wall between two electrically conducting terminals and are slidably engaged thereby with a mounting bar having a groove correspondingly shaped to match and receive the profile of the dove-tail shaped portions of the housing blocks.

Abstract: Ganged modular electrical switches and shunts for use in programming electric/electronic equipment are disclosed comprising an electrically insulating, substantially rectangular housing, and a multitude of elongated electrically conducting terminals secured to the base of the housing. Electrical switches of this invention for a pair of adjacent terminals contain an electrically conducting contact bearing disposed within the housing and adapted to be movable between a first position and a second position corresponding respectively to the "off" and "on" configurations of the electrical switch in response to the movement of a switch actuating member slidably disposed within the housing. A mounting bar and cartridge dispenser for storing, transporting and installing and removing the above-described switches and shunts from integrated electrical circuits are also described.
