ABSTRACT:
Matable electrical connectors are protected against damage from excessive external force while they are reliably mated under normal conditions. One of the connectors 10 has a pair of latch devices 40a ,40b which are received in a pair of latch receiving recesses 23a ,23b in a connector housing 20. The latch devices 40 have resilient circular tongues 44 which are received in the recesses 23 with a controllable tensile force so that the latchable electrical connector 10 can be unmated from a matable connector 10' without manually unlatching the latch devices 40.
