ABSTRACT:
A kit for assembling an electrical connector for high voltage connections has only a pin contact terminal crimpable to a stripped conductor wire, a socket contact terminal crimpable to a stripped conductor wire, a terminal housing subassembly into which the crimped pin contact terminal is insertable, a terminal housing subassembly into which the crimped socket contact terminal is insertable, and connector housings having passageways into which the housing subassemblies are insertable. Each housing subassembly includes a rearward section extending rearwardly from the termination of the stripped conductor wire to the terminal and along a length of the insulated conductor, to establish a long voltage leakage path for minimizing corona discharge events during in-service use. Each housing subassembly contains a retention clip therewithin to secure the terminal upon insertion, and also includes another retention clip therearound to retain the housing subassembly within the connector housing upon insertion into a housing passageway. The housing subassemblies include matable forward hood sections surrounding the pin and socket contact sections and establishing a long voltage leakage path along the connector mating face.
