ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector box structure that provides external visual indication of an incompletely assembled position of a press fit bus bar. A wire crimping portion is provided on one side of a base plate of press fit bus bar, and terminals, which project from the other side of the base plate, are provided for connection to electrical components. The bus bar also includes a lock aperture that locks the bus bar into a bus bar chamber, and a stop flange formed as an outwardly bent portion located beneath the lock aperture. A flexible flange, on which a lock ridge is formed, opposes stop flange. The incomplete insertion of bus bar results in stop flange failing to move over the lock ridge, thus pressing flexible flange outward in the direction opposite to the lock ridge to provide visual indication of the incomplete insertion condition.
