A first connector includes a dielectric housing having terminals mounted therein. The first connector housing has the switch mounted thereon. A second connector includes a dielectric housing having terminals mounted therein adapted for interengagement with the terminals of the first connector. The second connector housing includes an actuating plug for engaging and actuating the switch actuator automatically when the connectors are partially mated.
