ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector comprises an insulation housing (30) having a plurality of contact-receiving cavities (33) in which electrical contacts (10, 10') are to be inserted and secured. Each of the contacts (10, 10') includes a base section (11, 11') for engaging with a first wall (31a) of the cavity (33), a contact-receiving section (12), a conductor-engaging section (13) and an engaging section (14, 14') having engaging members (22, 22') being pressed into channels (34) in the third and fourth walls (32a, 32b) of the cavity (33) thereby securing the contact (10, 10') in the cavity (33). Wing members (15) have ends (15a) disposed in spaces (38) in the cavity (33).
