Abstract
A wire positioning adapter for dressing wires from a multi-conductor cable to transverse terminal locations is disclosed. The adapter is used with a standard semi-automatic insertion apparatus which simultaneously attaches a pair of conductors to oppositely facing terminals. The adapter moves along a linear path with respect to the connector. Wires are laced across a wire positioning surface between the cable end and the terminals. The wires are allowed to longitudinally slip across this surface during movement of the adapter.
