ABSTRACT:
A socket-type electrical connector adaptable for use with connector pins having different size and spacing parameters and with different size electrical cables includes a housing in which a replaceable contact sub-assembly and replaceable strain relief element are located. The contact sub-assembly includes an interstitial contact carrier support member on which are positioned a plurality of bow contacts in opposed parallel rows. The strain relief mechanism includes a pair of aligned opposed cavities, one in each of a pair of opposed housing parts, such cavities opening toward one another and the insert element in the form of a T-shape cross-section elongated member is positioned in one of the cavities for establishing a tortuous path for the electrical cable upon entry into the housing, whereby the electrical cable is at least frictionally retained in the housing by the strain relief mechanism.
