ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector housing (10) for maintaining an electrical contact (2,6) in position in a contact-retaining passage (12,16) therein comprises locking members (20,30) hingedly mounted onto sides of the housing for closing locking openings (13a,13b,17a,17b) in the sides of the housing, the locking openings being in communication with the contact-retaining passage. Locking projections (21,22,31,32) are located on the locking members (20,30) for engagement with the contact (2,6) when the locking members (20,30) close the locking openings thereby maintaining the contact (2,6) in position in the passage (12,16). Resilient latching members (23,33) are provided on the locking members (20,30) and they include latching sections (23a,33a) that latchably engage with one another in the housing (10) when the locking members (20,30) are in a closed position thereby maintaining the locking members (20,30) in the closed position.
