ABSTRACT:
Leads (22) of an electrical component (20) are positioned within and extend through a plurality of apertures (74) formed through a substrate (54). The substrate (54) includes a circuit (56) formed on one major surface thereof and a plurality of contacts (76) mounted thereon which is electrically connected to the circuit (56) and which overlaps a portion of the appropriate one of the plurality of apertures (74) formed therethrough. A lead pusher (32) moves the leads (22) into engagement with the contacts (76). Thereafter, free ends of the leads (22) are moved beyond a point of engagement between the leads and the contacts (76) so that the lead is flexed to insure a firm engagement between the leads and the contacts.
