ABSTRACT:
The connector which is formed from sheet material comprises a receptacle portion (1') with a base (11') and a pair of upstanding side walls (13') with turned-in edge portions (15'). The receptacle portion (1') is suitable to receive a flat tab male terminal (5') from a front end and comprises a resilient tongue (21') which is released from the base (11') and which extends rearwardly from the front of the base and comprises a projection (25') which is capable of cooperating with a cut-out (27') formed in the terminal (5') in order to secure the terminal (5') in the receptacle. At the area of the side edges (33') of the resilient tongue (21') first tags (37) are released from the base (11') so that the connector can be made suitable to receive flat male tab terminals of different widths by performing only a simple finishing operation. For wide terminals the first tags (37) are completely removed from the base (11'), while for narrow terminals they are bent upward from the base so that they extend approximately parallel to the side walls (13').
