ABSTRACT:
A sacrificial circuit connector for interposition between male and female connector terminals for applications in which the expected connect and disconnect cycles may exceed the rated cycle limits of at least one of the connector terminals. The structure of sacrificial connector is largely determined by the need for connection compatibility between the sacrificial connector and the connector terminals. By making repeated disconnections at the sacrificial connector rather than between the connector terminals, the usable life of at least one connector terminal can be significantly increased, thereby adding efficiency and reliability while decreasing costs.
