SUBSTRATE CONNECTOR GUIDE ABSTRACT A substrate connector guide for installing and electrically connecting an electrical substrate to a carrier substrate. The substrate connector guide includes a plurality of guide rails mounted on the perimeter edge of the electrical substrate and at least a first electrical connector mounted transversely between the guide rails. First and second substrate guides are mounted to the carrier substrate in a spaced and parallel relationship to the other. Each substrate guide includes a channel extending longitudinally along a substrate guide inner side, from an open end to a top guide. The channel is further defined by a top surface and a plurality of drop guides which in turn form a plurality of slots. At least a second electrical connector is mounted and electrically connected to the carrier substrate between the first and second substrate guides. The electrical substrate is installed by manually inserting the electrical substrate into respective substrate guide open ends and manually pushing the electrical substrate along the channels until the substrate encounters a respective top guide. The top guides then urge the substrate downward until each electrical substrate guide rail falls into a respective substrate guide slot. Each of the electrical substrate's plurality of guide rails rest on the carrier substrate and align the first electrical connector to the second electrical connector. An electrical connection is completed between the electrical substrate and the carrier substrate when the electrical substrate is fully seated on the first and second substrate guides.
