ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector comprises an elongate insulative housing having a plurality of cavities extending in side-by-side relation along the longitudinal housing direction. Each of the cavities is nominally spaced for fine pitch applications to be on the order of 0.050 inch. A wire contact assembly which is snapped into the connector housing and resiliently held therein by a releasable latch, comprises an insulation crimping portion that is formed during the crimping process to be of oval configuration. The oval configuration allows the use of wires at least as large as 28 AWG in such fine pitch spacings and permits installation of each wire contact assembly into the connector in the same orientation.
