Abstract
To provide for closed loop conditions in vacant module positions, as in back panel systems in telecommunications systems, a bridging contact is provided which, in the absence of a module, contacts at least two terminals or contact members. The bridging contact is mounted in the shroud of a back panel. Insertion of a module moves the bridging contact away from contact members. The contact member is given a particular form or shape so that the module does not touch those parts of the bridging contact which actually contact the contact members, giving long serviceability and avoiding damage to the contacting areas.
