ABSTRACT:
A modifiable harness adaptor (10) interfaces a conventional four-way-flat harness connector with any conventional four-way-round harness connector having any orientation of male pin terminals (38a-38d). The modifiable harness adaptor (10) has a first adaptor connector (14) for connecting to a correlative four-way-flat harness connector. Interconnect wires (16a-16d) connect the four-way-flat adaptor connector (14) with a modifiable four-way-round adaptor connector (12). The modifiable four-way-round adaptor connector (12) has four sectorial terminal sections (26a-26d), each comprising a corresponding female pin terminal (28a-28d). The four sectorial terminal sections (26a-26d) are held together to form a cylindrical configuration via a ring-like retainer (42) which is slidably engaged about the longitudinal portion of the sectorial terminal sections (26a-26d).
