ABSTRACT:
A panel mount electrical connector has a flange (24) and a locking ramp (40) forward of the flange. The flange and the locking ramp are arranged to be disposed on opposite sides of a mounting panel when the connector is disposed in a cutout of the panel. The locking ramp is inclined with respect to the flange such that the panel will become captured between the locking ramp and the flange when the connector is twisted in the cutout.
