ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector includes an elongated dielectric housing defining a slot for receiving a flat electrical circuit. A plurality of terminals are mounted on the housing, with contact portions spaced along the slot. The contact portions are fixed against movement relative to the housing. A metal actuator is mounted on the housing for movement between a first position allowing free insertion of the flat electrical circuit into the slot and a second position wherein a flexible plate portion of the actuator biases the circuit against the fixed contact portions of the terminals.
