ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector comprises a connector body which houses a pair of insulation displacement terminals which are attached to electrical leads which lead out of the connector body through an exit chamber. The electrical connector has a strain relief cover which includes a blade which enters the exit chamber and kinks the electrical leads laterally to pass through labyrinthian passages created by the blade so as to provide strain relief in the longitudinal direction of the electrical leads. The strain relief cover also has portions which cooperate with the connector body to provide strain relief in the lateral direction and to insure proper seating of the electrical leads in the attachment portions of the insulation displacement terminals.
