ABSTRACT:
The Universal Electrical Construction Set consists of a coded series of plastic spring-bearing disks called "connectors", used for temporary attachment and support of electrical circuit components, plus a set of hook-up wires with coded lengths, used for linking the connectors together in appropriate ways to complete the electrical circuit construction; two additional types of devices, adaptors and indicators, make the set complete. These devices can be temporarily attached, when and where desired, to the springs of the connectors. The "adaptors" allow the utilization of circuit components having short leads. The "indicators" provide a convenient, optional coding system to indicate numbers or relative electrical potentials. The color, diameter, and geometry of construction of each disk are related to the number of springs supported by it. The same color-coding system, namely the resistor color code, is used for connectors, hook-up wires, and indicators.
