ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector includes first and second connector bodies which are arranged to first be positioned together, and then separated once electrical contacts have been inserted in at least one of the first and second connector bodies. During, after, or both during and after the separating of the two connector bodies, portions of the first and second connector bodies are in direct contact with each other. The first connector body has first and second walls extending therefrom. At least one ramp and at least one stop are arranged on at least one of the first wall, the second wall, and the second connector body. At least one protrusion is arranged on at least one of the first wall, the second wall, and the second connector body. The at least one ramp, the at least one stop, and the at least one protrusion are arranged such that, when the at least one ramp and the at least one stop engage the at least one protrusion, a distance between the first and second connector bodies is fixed.
