Electrode terminal part connection structure and plasma display panel having the same

An electrode terminal part connection structure for a plasma display panel, comprising:

• a pair of substrates facing each other;
• a barrier rib interposed between the substrates so as to define discharge cells together with the substrates;
• discharge electrodes, each having a discharge part located within the barrier rib, a terminal part located outside the barrier rib and contacting one of the substrates, and a connection part connecting the discharge part to the terminal part;
• and
• signal transmitting means having an end portion which contacts the terminal part for transmitting a signal thereto.
