ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector (10) includes a plurality of terminal members (12) and means for securing the body portions (14) of the terminal members (12) together to form a stacked array. Each terminal member (12) includes a body portion having a first contact section (24) adapted to electrically engage a first electrical article (40) and a second contact section (34) adapted to engage a second electrical article (44). Each terminal member (12) further includes integral spacing means for spacing respective body portions (14) of adjacent terminal members from each other. Upon electrically engaging respective first and second contact sections (24, 34) of the plurality of terminal members (12) with corresponding first and second electrical articles (40, 44), the terminal members (12) provide a plurality of paths for current flow between the first and second electrical articles (40, 44).
