ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector assembly includes an electrical connector (2) and a pick up cap (1) attached onto the connector. The connector includes a generally rectangular housing (21), a clip (24) pivotally engaged to the housing, and a number of electrical contacts (23) received in the housing. The housing includes a cavity (210) formed with a front side (211), a rear side (212) opposite to the front side, and a pair of opposite lateral sides (213) interconnecting the front side and the rear side. The pick up cap includes a planar body (10) with a smooth top surface (100) and a bottom surface thereof. In use, the pick up cap is mounted between the clip and the housing, therefore, it is close to the contacts and covers nearly all the exposed contacts, thereby providing the protection of the contacts.
