    Abstract: An electrical connector (10) for making electrical contact with at least one lead (48) of an electronic device. The connector (10) includes a mounting flange portion (12) and a connector housing portion (14). The connector (10) also includes at least one conductor (38) having a pin end (40) and a terminal end (42), wherein the terminal end (42) includes a lead opening (44) that receives the lead (48) and a fastener hole (46) oriented substantially transverse to the lead opening (44). A fastening element (50) is used to engage the fastener hole (46) and contacts the lead (48) to form electrical contact between the conductor (38) and the lead (48). The connector (10) further includes a conductor carrier (28) that extends through the connector housing (14) and mounting flange (12). The conductor carrier (28) includes a base portion (32) and at least one extended portion (34) that extends from the base portion (32) to form a staggered arrangement. The base (32) and extended (34) portions each include a plurality of channels (36) wherein each channel (36) includes a conductor (38).
