ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector system includes an elongated dielectric connector housing defining an elongated opening for receiving a flat circuit. A plurality of terminals are mounted on the housing and have contact portions spaced along the opening. An actuator is mounted on the housing for movement between a first position allowing free insertion of the flat circuit into the opening and a second position wherein a pressure plate of the actuator biases the circuit against the contact portions of the terminals. The flat circuit includes at least one latch aperture. The connector housing includes at least one latch projection allowing free insertion of the flat circuit into the opening but engaging the latch aperture in the circuit to resist withdrawal of the circuit from the opening.
