ABSTRACT:
A connector assembly test block for simultaneously verifying the wiring of a plurality of pairs of electrically-conductive connectors in a connector assembly. The test block has a plurality of pairs of electrically-conductive contact members positioned for concurrent conductive contact with the pairs of connectors when the test block is interfaced with the connector assembly. The test block also includes an indicator device conductively connected to each pair of contact members. The indicator devices are responsive to a signal generated when energized. Each indicator device provides a perceptible indication verifying proper wiring of a pair of connectors when conductively connected to a pair of energized connectors.
