ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector comprises a plug and complementary socket. The plug includes a main body having a portion adapted for insertion into the socket, and a resilient tongue biased away from the main body and extending laterally therefrom generally in the direction of plug insertion. The tongue and the socket are provided with respective catch means which mutually engage when the plug is inserted into the socket. The catch can thus be released simply by squeezing the tongue against the main body. In order to prevent the tongue catching on obstacles and to help prevent inadvertent actuation especially in the context of a portable radio telephone, a rigid joining member is provided between the rearward end of the tongue and the main body.
