ABSTRACT:
Multi-contact electrical connector comprises a rectangular housing having a wire-receiving face and an oppositely directed mating face and contact terminals mounted therein. Housing has aligning means thereon which guide the mating face normally against the mating face of a complementary connector then parallel thereto. Terminals have wire-receiving portions extending from the wire-receiving face and mating portions extending from the mating face which mate laterally with mating portions of complementary terminals during parallel movement of mating faces. Leverage means are provided on the housings so that little force is required to engage or disengage the connectors. Connector and complementary connector may be identical and the preferred terminals are identical and hermaphroditic.
