摘要:
A method for making an electrical connector (10) comprises the steps of configuring a housing (12) and contact members (16) such that the contact members may assume positions in the housing (12) which are variable for each contact member and of assembling the contact members in the housing such that they assume positions therein giving rise to contact member coplanarity. An electrical connector (10) so made comprises a housing (12) defining contact member receiving channels (14) and contact members (16) resident in the channels (14), the contact members defining contact portions (16a,16c) and contact member retaining means, the housing being configured to permit variable positioning of said contact member retaining means therein, whereby contact member contact portions may be coplanarly positioned irrespective of warp present in the housing.
