ABSTRACT:
In order to reduce the variety of connector bodies needed for connecting electrical apparatus such as an automobile radio to factory-installed cabling of a motor vehicle having a mating connector for connection to the electrical apparatus, a composite connector is provided having a front unit with two sets of contacts respectively interconnected by a circuit board, of which the first set is designed to interfit with the mating connector of the vehicle and the second set is designed to interfit with the contacts of a second unit of the composite connector. That second unit has a set of contacts connected to a circuit board which carries circuit components for protection of electrical circuits from external interference. A flat parallel conductor cable is introduced through a slot in the second unit for connection to its circuit board before the circuit board is put in place. A spacing frame separate from the second unit is interposed between the circuit board side of the second unit and the surface of the apparatus casing on which the connector is mounted and to which the second unit can be held by a screw. Spring clasps are provided to hold the units to each other and to the apparatus on which the composite connector is mounted.
