Abstract (en)

An electrical connector in which preselected terminals (16) are shunted. Contact portions (108) of the terminals (16) are aligned with a shunt bar (113, 113 min ) and are resiliently deformable from positions engaging the shunt bar (113, 113 min ) in an unmated condition of the connector to positions spaced from the shunt bar (113, 113 min ) in a mated condition of the connector by mating engagement with a complimentary connector. The shunt bar (113, 113 min ) comprises a bridge portion from which asymmetrically spaced contact lugs (116, 117, 116 min , 117 min ) depend. Two shunt bars (113, 113 min ) are located in tandem in back-to-back relation in a housing (15) so that alternate contact tongues (108) are aligned with respective contact lugs (116, 117 min , 116 min , 117) on respective shunt bars (113, 113 min ).
