ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector adapted to be coupled to a complementary locking type electrical connector by initial relative axial movement therebetween. The electrical connector includes an insulated housing with a set of electrical contacts mounted therein, and a locking member movably coupled to the housing between an unlocked position and a locked position upon relative rotational movement between the complementary locking type electrical connector and the electrical connector. The housing has a first detent member and a sleeve for nesting with a portion of the complementary locking type electrical connector. The sleeve has a mating surface with a first polarizing member for cooperating with a complementary polarizing member of the complementary locking type electrical connector. The locking member has a second polarizing member and a second detent member for overridably engaging said first detent member of the housing upon relative rotational movement of the complementary locking type electrical to the locked position for preventing inadvertent disconnection therebetween.
