ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector having a spring-arm receptacle is surrounded by a hood which is rectangular in cross-section. The hood guides a plug-type terminal tip into the receptacle. The receptacle includes at least one spring arm which is generally convex and defines transverse contact lines which engage opposite surfaces of the terminal tip when it engages the receptacle. At least one arm includes a central portion between the transverse contact lines, which forms a concave spring upon deflection.
