ABSTRACT:
A unitary molded housing of electrically insulative material has an integrally hinged cover which is retained in the closed position by primary and secondary latch means. The secondary latch means is adjacent the integral hinge and serves to retain the cover in the closed position in conjunction with the primary latch means in the event the integral hinge fractures in service.
The housing is illustrated in conjunction with a quick splice electrical connector and features bifurcated projections on the cover which during closure of the cover aid in piercing insulation of electrical lead wires by pushing the lead wires into slotted terminals in the housing.
The housing is heat staked to retain the terminals therein and also includes means for strain relieving the lead wires having their insulation pierced by the terminals.
