Summary:A system for connecting panels in adjacent edge-to-edge relationship comprises plates mounted to the edge of each panel providing a series of spaced-apart protuberances along each panel edge. Each protuberance includes an opening normal to the edges of the panels. A channel connector has a web which is interposed between the panel edges and includes a plurality of windows providing gateways through the web for the protuberances when the panels are placed in adjacent edge-to-edge relationship. Each window includes a downwardly extending tongue which is inserted into the opening corresponding to the protuberance in each window to interlock the two panels.
