              Application 11/170,468                                                               
          1         wherein the connector performance indicating section comprises a               
          2         label.                                                                         
          3               3.  Independent claim 11 is as follows:                                  
          4               An electrical connector comprising:                                      
          5               a compressible connection section which is sized and shaped to           
          6         be compressibly crimped onto an electrical conductor; and                      
          7               a visual indicium temperature sensitive indicator on the                 
          8         compressible connection section, wherein the temperature sensitive             
          9         indicator is adapted to signal and permanently record occurrence of a          
         10         temperature at the temperature sensitive indicator above a                     
         11         predetermined temperature.                                                     
         12               4.  Independent claim 21 is as follows:                                  
         13               An electrical connector comprising:                                      
         14               a compressible connection section which is sized and shaped to           
         15         be compressibly crimped onto an electrical conductor; and                      
         16               a non-electrical temperature sensitive indicator on the                  
         17         compressible connection section, wherein the temperature sensitive             
         18         indicator is adapted to signal and permanently record occurrence of a          
         19         temperature at the temperature sensitive indicator above a                     
         20         predetermined temperature.                                                     
         21               5.  Independent claim 22 is as follows:                                  
         22               A method of manufacturing an electrical connector comprising:            


                                                4
