ABSTRACT:
An insulated electrical terminal for mating with a flat male tab having an insulated housing sleeve surrounding a metal terminal having a cantilevered locking tongue extending from a supported end of the terminal towards a tab receiving end, and including an upward curved section in the cantilevered tongue to increase the locking strength against pull-out. The electrical terminal further includes an angled forward release lever that cooperates with an angled cam surface formed within the insulated housing to depress the release lever so as to release the male tab from engagement with the cantilevered locking tongue.
