Reasons for using the electrical connector

Imagine what would happen if there were no connectors? At this time, the circuits shall be permanently connected with continuous conductors. For example, if the electronic device is to be connected to the power supply, both ends of the connecting wire must be firmly connected with the electronic device and the power supply by some means (such as welding). In this way, it brings a lot of inconvenience to production and use. Take automobile batteries as an example. Assuming that the battery cable is fixed and welded firmly on the battery, the automobile manufacturer will increase the workload, production time and cost for installing the battery. When the battery is damaged and needs to be replaced, the car should also be sent to the maintenance station, and the old one should be removed by desoldering, and then the new one should be welded. Therefore, more labor costs should be paid. Having a connector can save a lot of trouble. Buy a new battery from the store, disconnect the connector, remove the old battery, install a new battery, and reconnect the connector. This simple example illustrates the benefits of connectors. It makes the design and production process more convenient and flexible, and reduces the production and maintenance costs.
