A thermoelectric assembly comprises an insulator, a current carrier, and thermoelectric assemblies. The insulator has openings extending through the insulator from a first side to a second side, and receptacles located between the first and second sides. The current carrier is releasably secured to the insulator, and has ends. The thermoelectric assemblies are within the openings, and have terminals connected to the ends. A method of assembling a thermoelectric assembly comprises providing an insulating part, current carriers, and thermoelectric devices. The insulating part includes a) openings extending through the insulating part from a first side to a second side and b) receptacles located between the first and second sides. The thermoelectric devices include terminals. The method further includes engaging the current carriers within the receptacles, receiving the thermoelectric devices within the openings, and electrically connecting the thermoelectric devices via the current carriers.
