ABSTRACT:
An underwater electrical connector comprises a pair of mating plug and socket connector shells each containing a contact carrying insert body. When the shells are connected together, contact pins projecting from the front face of one of the insert bodies engage in corresponding contact sockets on the front face of the other insert body. The connector shells have an interengageable key and keyway formation for maintaining correct orientation as they are secured together. Each insert body has a keyed engagement with its respective shell as it is inserted. One of the insert bodies has a rearwardly projecting sleeve which engages in a corresponding rearwardly projecting sleeve on the respective connector shell as it is inserted. The shell sleeve has an axial through slot extending from its free end, and the insert body sleeve has a corresponding outwardly projecting key for engagement in the through slot.
