Abstract
An electrical connection system is disclosed for connecting two cable conductors to a thin metal plate. The system includes a contact member on the metal plate and a cable connector connected to the dual conductor cable. The contact member has a tunnel section with contact pillars retained therein. The contact pillars have staple-like attachment arms which extend outwardly from the tunnel section, through the metal plate, and are bent back against the metal plate to secure the contact member in place and in electrical contact with the plate. A cable connector having electrical contact members is received and positively supported within the tunnel portion of the contact member. The contact members of the connector engage the contact pillars to complete the connection.
