ABSTRACT:
A lever-type electrical connector 10,20 has a lever 30 pivotable from open to closed conditions to draw the connector parts together. A resilient latch 33,14 holds the lever in the closed condition. When the lever 30 is unlatched by depressing an abutment 14b it is given an initial upward movement by virtue of a ramped abutment 14d1, 14b1, 34 or by a resilient spring formed e.g. by a waterproof ring seal 15. This initial movement permits the lever to be grasped for further movement. A separate wire spring is avoided.
