ABSTRACT:
An in-line sealed electrical connector apparatus includes a female connector assembly and a male connector assembly. The female connector assembly includes a female housing, a female wire seal and a female cover. The male connector assembly includes a male housing, a retention clip, a male housing seal defining a male housing seal opening, a male wire seal and a male cover. The retention clip formed in a generally U-shaped configuration to define a generally D-shaped retention clip duct extending longitudinally through the retention clip. The generally D-shaped retention clip duct is sized to slidably receive the female housing such that, upon engaging the female connector assembly and the male connector assembly, the female housing is first received through the generally D-shaped retention clip duct and is thereafter inserted through the male housing seal opening.
