Abstract: A method for producing modular electrical connectors having varying contact element configurations includes providing a common header component having a plurality of receptacle spaces defined therein. A plurality of different contact sub-assemblies are provided having varying contact element configurations, with each of sub-assembly having a common size configured for receipt in the receptacle spaces. A pattern of the contact sub-assemblies is defined for a particular desired connector configuration from any combination of the contact sub-assemblies, and the contact sub-assemblies are fitted and adhered into the receptacle spaces in the header component according to the pattern. A kit may be provided with the modular components for making the connectors.

Abstract: A terminal/pin block for making a multipin electronic plug has a rigid dielectric plate lying in a plane and having a pair of edges and two opposite faces. Respective centering formations formed on the faces project away from the plane and the centering formations of one of the faces are complementary to and fittable in the centering formations of the other of the faces. A row of conductive strips imbedded in the plate all lie in a common plane parallel to each other and each have one end forming a contact pin and an opposite end forming a terminal. The contact pins all extend from one of the edges of the plate and the terminals all extend from another of the plate edges.
