ABSTRACT:
An insulating housing for mounting in a mating female connector housing of an electrical connector, whereby the insulating housing is a two-piece construction including a housing member which receives a cover therein. The cover comprises a strain relief member which, in a preferred embodiment, is integrally formed as part of the cover and which comprises a plurality of teeth. When the cover is mounted in the insulating housing, the strain relief member may be pivoted from an unlocked to a locked position, whereupon the plurality of teeth bite into the insulation of the insulated wires, thereby relieving strain on the insulated wires.
