ABSTRACT:
A short circuit connector has male and female connector housings 10,20, one of which has a short circuit terminal 30 and the other of which has an insertion member 16. In the disconnected state the short circuit terminal 30 electrically connects two terminals of one housing, whilst in the connected state the short circuit terminal 30 is disengaged by the insertion member 16. The insertion member does not directly separate the contact area of the terminals. In a second aspect the connector includes a retainer 117 which has retention projections 124,127 engageable in the chamber of the short circuit terminal; separate engagement recesses are thereby avoided.
