ABSTRACT:
A lead connector is terminated proximally by a connector pin and includes a circumferential array of connector pads, each connector pad coupled to an electrode via an elongated insulated conductor. A lumen of an adaptor is adapted to engage the lead connector and includes an electrical contact zone formed therein and positioned for coupling with a one of the array of connector pads, when the connector is engaged within the lumen, in order to facilitate electrical connection of a selected electrode corresponding to the one of the array of connector pads.
