ABSTRACT:
A plug header includes a plurality of tab receptacle contact terminals in two rows of passageways to receive blade sections of male terminals of a mating connector thereinto without stubbing. Lead-in surfaces at forward ends of the passageways cooperate with coplanar tapered forward portions of the opposing spring contact arms to provide continuous lead-in means. One of the spring contact arms is a dual beam for two points of contact engagement with the blade terminal. An axial rib segment of the adjacent passageway wall juts into the slot between the diverging front portions of the dual beam and has a tapered lead-in surface coplanar with the forward surfaces of the diverging front portions. And the slot has stop surfaces engageable with the rib segment if the dual beam spring contact arm is substantially stressed outwardly to minimize overstressing thereof.
