ABSTRACT:
A connector of an electrical connector assembly includes a housing defining a pair of parallel cavities extending therethrough, and a partition wall partitioning the cavities from one another. A leakage-prevention plate having a finlike configuration is interposed between the open ends of the two cavities. Thus, the path of least resistance between terminal fixtures within the respective cavities extends over both surfaces of the leakage-prevention plate. For this reason, the value of leakage current between the fixtures retained by the same connector will be extremely small, and the electrical corrosion of the terminal fixtures will be reliably suppressed. Furthermore, the leakage-prevention plate may possess a high degree of water repellency by being formed of an oil-impregnated resin in which particles of lubricating oil are dispersed within synthetic resin and/or by having the surfaces machined to a mirror finish. This prevents a continuous band of water from developing between the two terminal fixtures. The above structure may be applied to a male and/or a female connector of the connector assembly.
