ABSTRACT:
A thermocouple connector arrangement that has a first connector configured to have a thermocouple probe lead extending therefrom and a second connector configured to have an electrical connection lead extending therefrom. Each connector has an interior configured to receive a terminus of the respective lead. The connectors include electrically conductive mating parts that, when mated, provide an electrical conduction path. At least one of the first and second connectors includes housing parts that mate in a snap-lock arrangement without the use of a threaded fastener to secure the housing parts together and to enclose the respective interior, one of the housing parts engages the respective terminus and secures the respective terminus against removal by shrouding an end of the respective conductive mating part and pressing the respective terminus into electrical contact with the respective conductive mating part during the mating of the housing parts.
