Abstract
A vehicle electric power distribution system having a plurality of conductive plates, wherein each conductive plate includes an arrangement of contact pads that are electrically connected to other contact pads via integrally formed conductive traces. These conductive plates can be vertically stacked, with electrical contact between selected contact pads on different conductive plates being provided by conductive pins. Each conductive plate is selectively coated with an insulating layer to obviate unwanted electrical contact.
