ABSTRACT:
An energy transmission cable connector for connecting terminals in a circuit has a cable coupled to a connector housing which is enclosed by a molded outer housing. The outer housing has a pair of side cavities pivotally receiving a pair of latches. The latches have locking fingers for engaging a connecting element and are biased into a locking position by integral leaf springs or helical compression springs. The pivotal coupling of the latches is accomplished by protrusions on the latches retained by recesses in the housing, a pin assembly, or an integrally molded hinge. The connector can be used with electrical or fiber optic cables.
