ABSTRACT:
A hollow generally tubular female electrical connector is formed from a sheet metal blank to define a body member having a rectangular cross-sectional configuration including opposed pairs of side walls, characterized by the formation of two pairs of opposed inwardly-extending contact tongues that are arranged in longitudinally spaced relation for successive engagement by a male connector, whereby two different longitudinally-spaced contact planes are provided to afford reliable safe electrical contact with the male connector. Preferably, the contact tongues of one pair are formed from body side walls that are orthogonally arranged relative to the side walls from which the other pair of contact tongues are formed, whereby the pairs of contact tongues are arranged at 90.degree. relative to each other.
