ABSTRACT:
An operating mechanism has dual action control in both the axial and normal directions described for a plugboard system or the like to connect and disconnect selective electrical terminals in housing modules of a front bay with respective electrical terminals in housing modules of a rear bay. The dual action operating mechanism moves the front bay relative to the rear bay in a straight inward direction thereby electrically connecting selective electrical terminals of the front and rear bays together; and a subframe of the rear bay is moved a preselected distance by the mechanism in a normal direction to apply a contact force to connect other selective electrical terminals of the front and rear bay.
