ABSTRACT:
A connector having two mutually engagable parts wherein a first part comprises a molded plastic housing having a pair of springy toothed prongs or clips between which a male contact extends and is supported against a finger of the body of the housing which projects between the clips. The other part comprises an elongate molded plastic housing having channel section which is arranged to hold a female contact between external walls. Notches complementary with toothed parts of the clips are provided such that the two parts of the connector mutually engage in interlocking relationship when mated. The finger serves as a closure for the channel section when the parts are mated.
