ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector (1) includes a housing (10), a cover (20), and an actuator (30). The base includes an extending portion (12) with a projection (1212) and a hook portion (1214) inwardly formed a top of the projection. The actuator includes an operational lever (32) and an axle (33) engaged with the operational lever. A coil spring (34) is mounted around the axle and defines a first end (342) at a free end thereof. A retention clip (60) is mounted on the projection and includes a base portion (61), a first and second extending walls (62, 63) extending from two opposite ends of the base portion. The coil spring is attached to the operational lever and rotates under force from the operational lever, and the retention clip is tightly fastened on the projection, thereby the operational lever can only be retained in a first position or a second position.
