ABSTRACT:
An electrical connecting apparatus supporting a multiple pin connector under test so that the connector pins of the connector can be electrically engaged without touching the functional connecting surface of the connector pins, the apparatus comprising a housing member with a connector nesting cavity and a cantilever clamp for retaining the connector under test in the nesting cavity. A contact assembly causes plural spring biased pin contactors to contact the connector in a connected mode so as to make electrical contact while maintaining the pristine surface condition of the functional ends of the connector pins, and an ejector pin is provided to eject the connector from the nesting cavity in following testing thereof.
