ABSTRACT:
A hybrid filter header is disclosed for use in electro-explosive devices to assure shorting of the contacts in a disconnected condition thereby avoiding accidental detonation of the explosive device. The subject hybrid filter header is mounted in a receptacle member of a connector and includes at least two pin contacts, each mounted in a respective filter sleeve and secured in a ground plane adopted to be forced fitted into the receptacle housing. The terminals are encompassed between a pair of locking spring members that effect shorting of the terminals to the ground plane in a disconnected condition. The mating plug member includes an insulated portion which spreads the spring members to disengage them from the terminals and to engage therewith in a locking relationship to hold the connector members together.
