ABSTRACT:
A method of making a releasable electrical connector assembly having a brush-type contact including the steps of: positioning an elongated electrical conductor having an axial passage extending therethrough; sliding over the conductor an elongated body having a flanged end portion extending radially outwardly; inserting several straight wires of electrically conductive material into one end of the conductor; securing together the wires, the conductor and the elongated body, the wires forming a brush for releasably mating with a like bunch of wires; inserting an exposed electrically conducting end portion of a cable into the opposite end of the conductor and into engagement with the ends of the wires; securing the end portion of the cable and the conductor together, thereby establishing an electrical circuit relationship between the cable, the straight wires and the conductor and thereby providing the brush-type contact. Retention fingers of an insert housing passage engage the flanged end portion to mount the contact and thereby form the releasable assembly.
