ABSTRACT:
A method for manufacturing an electrode comprises molding a plurality of spaced conductive sections which include a pin receptacle for receiving a connector pin of a wire harness. A skeleton of conductive sections, connector pins and lead wires are placed in a mold which defines the electrode. A non-conductive polymer is molded to the skeleton to form an integral electrode having a elongated body of conductive sections separated by non-conductive sections. Multiple durometer polymers may be used to achieve desired levels of flexibility of the electrode.
