Abstract
A method for simultaneously brazing adjacent conductor joints comprises the steps of arranging at least two pair of conductor joints in a row placing a brazing compound between the pairs of joints desired to be electrically connected placing a conductive spacer between the pairs not to be brazed and passing an electrical current through the row of conductors until the brazing compound melts joining the conductor joints. The spacer can then be removed thereby maintaining the proper spacing between the pairs of brazed conductor joints. The multiple rows of conductor joints can be arranged adjacent one another so that they can be moved between brazing electrodes sequentially thereby allowing a continuous brazing operation of multiple rows of conductor joints. The brazing compound may be a continuous ribbon of brazing compound which extends between the multiple rows of conductor joints.
