ABSTRACT:
An electrical component housing assembly having a main housing body (2) containing a matrix (12) of receptacle cavities (34) being adapted to accommodate mating single receptacles (4) or mating double receptacles (6). The electrical receptacles include polarizing tabs (170, 270) which are received in polarizing slots (40) of the receptacle cavities (34) upon the condition that the receptacles are properly oriented with respect to the receptacle cavities. Locking tabs (172, 272) located on the receptacle (4, 6) respectively engage with the recessed channels (42) and walls (43) to secure the receptacles within the cavities (34). A locking bar (8) interacts with a locking member (37) that engages cutout portion (168, 268) of a receptacle (4, 6) to further secure the receptacles within the cavities. Contact portion (22) of power lead terminal (20) employs a plurality of holes (24) in combination with a fastener for each hole to provide improved electrical contact between the power lead terminal (20) and the bus bar (14).
