ABSTRACT:
A method of assembling an electrical test connector for testing connectivity in aircraft wire harness fitted with military specification or other electrical connectors. In a particular embodiment, the test connector is manually assembled on site by a technician from components that are readily and inexpensively available, providing ease and speed in completing connectivity or other wire testing. The test connector has a mating insert, selected and configured to mate with an identified aircraft connector present on the harness to be tested. Insulation and internal wire support is provided by packing the wire connections with a potting material and covering the test connector with an optional heat shrink tubing. Alignment to the aircraft connector may be keyed with the use of a visual indicator applied to the covering. The components as a kit and the assembled test connector are also provided.
