ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector assembly for link with a multi-conductors cable consists of an insulative connector housing attached with a plurality of contacts, a spacer, a terminal cover, and a strain relief. The terminal cover includes a pair of spring arms respectively outwardly extends from opposite ends thereof wherein each spring arm has a slot defined therein. A cavity is defined beside each spring arm of the terminal cover. The strain relief includes a pair of latching fingers outward extended from opposite ends thereof, and a pair of spaced guiding blocks integrally extending beside each latching finger wherein the guiding blocks and the latching finger on each end of the strain relief constitute a coplanar arrangement. Therefore, the latching fingers are capable of being rapidly orientated and stably inserted inside the slots of the corresponding spring arms of the terminal cover as soon as the guiding blocks of the strain relief fits within the corresponding cavities of the terminal cover.
