ABSTRACT:
A low profile electrical connector assembly comprises matable first and second dielectric housing members having first and second matable electrical contacts secured respectively therein. The first electrical contact comprises a resilient hooked contact portion disposed about a supporting rib extending from a wall in the first housing member in the mating direction. The second electrical contact comprises a base plate which extends parallel to the mating direction and includes a conductor-connecting portion extending outwardly from the ends of the base plate from one side of the base plate and a contact portion extending outwardly from sides of the base plate from the other side of the base plate so that the contact portion resiliently engages the hooked contact portion in an interference fit when the housings mate together.
