ABSTRACT:
A multi-contact electrical connector having a plug section and a receptacle section is provided with a breech lock for releasably securing the separate sections of the connector together. Toggle action biasing means such as a conical disc spring and high lead threads with a predetermined amount of lost motion therein insure a "snap-action" mating and unmating of the two sections and the parts thereof as the breech lock is set and unset. This prevents a "false mating" and insures that the connector will always be either fully and completely mated or unmated. A short pin or remote mate monitor contact is included whereby the condition of the connector can be automatically and/or remotely monitored.
