ABSTRACT:
A socket intended to receive and make electrical contact between an electrical unit, such as a wedge based light bulb, and a connector. A core including an inner cylinder is provided with an insertion opening at one end. There is an electrically conductive terminal which includes a unit contact at the distal end within the inner cylinder and adjacent the insertion opening. A connector contact extends from the proximal end of the conductive terminal, remote from the distal end, through a terminal hole in the inner cylinder, out of the interior space, and into a connector receiver. The terminal is provided with contacts to receive the unit, and a wall plate adjacent the inner side wall of the inner cylinder. In addition, there is a shield plate adjacent a proximal end which overlies the terminal hole, thereby preventing entry of molding resin into the interior space where it can impair the integrity of the connection.
