Abstract: A device for connecting a flat cable to a wiring board in which the cable is composed of a plurality of layers. A first insulating layer carries a shield foil layer upon which a central insulation layer is placed. A plurality of conductors, parallel to each other and spaced apart transversely, are on the central layer and, in turn, are covered by a second insulating layer. The cable has a connecting end wherein the first layer and second layer are absent, thus exposing portions of the conductors and the shield layer for making contact with the device.The device itself is made up of a housing containing a series of cavities which correspond to the conductors. Each cavity contains a fixed terminal. The terminals project out of the cavities and contact the wiring board. The other ends of the contacts have a pressing element and a terminal contact.

Abstract: The novel jumper switch means of the invention is directed to by-passing an electrolyzer in a row of electrolyzers electrically connected in series to permit removal of the by-passed electrolyzer for maintenance. The jumper switch means comprises one or more internal bus bars connected to suitable arrays of switches, the internal bus bars being dimensioned in such a way that when substantially all the electrolysis current flows through the jumper switch means, the voltage at its two connection terminals and therefore at the contact points of the by-passed electrolyzer, is close to, but in any case lower than the voltage spontaneously reached by the electrolyzer when electrolysis current is no more fed. Further, the present invention offers the possibility of housing the array of switches and said internal bus bars in a structure having a U-shape wherein the planar part has a limited height which does not hinder the lateral removal of the by-passed electrolyzer by a suitable fork-lift truck.

Abstract: An inspection device for determining the integrity of electrical circuits in a connector having one or more electrical terminals therein. The test device carries probes, corresponding in number and location to the terminals, and the probes and the terminals are at an angle to each other so that, when in test position, the tips of the probes contact a portion of the terminals other than that at which a mating connector would be inserted. This eliminates the possibility of distortion or wear on fragile connecting surfaces.
