ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector pair has a first electrical connector and a second electrical connector which can be connected thereto. The first electrical connector has a multiplicity of contacting elements which can be brought into contact with contacting elements of the second electrical connector through relative movement of the two connectors in a contacting direction. The contacting elements are arranged in one or more rows extending in a row-alignment direction. The contacting elements of the electrical connectors of the pair can be brought into contact with a given amount of play in a transverse direction orthogonal to the contacting direction and to the row-alignment direction. The play is effective on either one or both sides and permits a mutual offset of the electrical connectors and is greater by a multiple than a play provided in the row-alignment direction.
