The present invention provides an integrated electrode connector and impedance indicator apparatus comprising of an electrode connector, an impedance indicator means; and a light-transmitting housing. The impedance indicator may be located in a recess in the housing. Preferably the impedance indicator means is an LED. Preferably the impedance indicator emits light when the impedance is outside of an operational range. The apparatus is suited for applications such as indicating the status of EEG electrodes.
