ABSTRACT:
A module (2) is connected to a multiplexing system by means of a printed circuit board (18) having thereon first conductors (14) each connected to a second conductor (22) by means of a spring clip (24) on the board (18). An edge connector (38) for mating with the board (18) has thereon projections (62) which can be selectively removed before the connector (38) is mated with the board (18). When the board (18) and the connector (38) are mated, the remaining projections (62) each left a respective clip (24) from its first conductor (14) and protrude between the clip (24) and the first conductor (14), thereby disconnecting them. The projections (62) and clips (24) thus provide a switching system which can be used to ensure that only selected second conductors (22) carry current.
