ABSTRACT:
A magnetic connection assembly for releasably connecting a ground cord to an electrically conductive body band. Said assembly comprising a first connection member electrically connected to one end of a ground cord and a second connection member electrically connected to a body band. The first and second connection members are at least partially formed of electrically conductive material and are correspondingly sized and configured so as to be relatively positionable in a "coupled" relation, whereby electrical contact is maintained therebetween. At least one magnet is positioned in at least one of the first and second connection members so as to create sufficient magnetic attraction therebetween to hold the first and second connection members in their "coupled" relation without the need for frictional or spring loaded snaps and the like.
