An electrical connector configured for connection with a flat cable includes a housing and a wedge, in some configurations. The housing may include an internal cavity, a slot in communication with the cavity and configured for receiving said flat cable, and/or a contact plate disposed within the cavity. The wedge may be configured for connection with the contact plate. The housing and the wedge may be configured to secure a portion of said flat cable in the cavity. An electrical assembly may include the electrical connector, a second electrical connector having an identical configuration as the electrical connector, said flat cable, and/or a second flat cable. In an assembled configuration, the second electrical connector may be connected to the electrical connector such that said flat cable is electrically connected to the said second flat cable.

Electrical connector for connecting to a flat cable and electrical assembly using same

An assembly includes a housing, a flat cable, and a spring terminal, in some configurations. The flat cable may be disposed at least partially in the housing and may include an electrical conductor. The spring terminal may be disposed at least partially in the housing. The spring terminal may include a base, a first wing extending from the base in a first direction, a second wing spaced apart from the first wing, a spring portion extending from the base in a second direction, and a tab extending from the base. The first wing and the second wing may extend through the flat cable such that the spring terminal is electrically connected to the electrical conductor. The spring portion may connect with an external electrical component such that the external electrical component is electrically connected to the electrical conductor.

Electrical assembly

An electrical connector includes a body with a terminal cavity that defines a terminal axis. The terminal cavity is adapted to accommodate an electrical terminal and has a contact area that includes a terminal lock. The terminal cavity also has a connection area that is open in a block direction that is perpendicular to the terminal axis. The electrical connector includes a block that is movable relative to the body to a latched position, and when the block is in the latched position it is located in the block direction from the connection area.

Connector for an electrical terminal with a crimped spring

An assembly includes a housing, a flat cable, a first wire, a second wire, a first terminal, a second terminal, and a divider. The flat cable may be disposed at least partially in the housing and may include a first exposed conductor portion and a second exposed conductor portion. The first wire and the second wire may be disposed partially in the housing. The first terminal and the second terminal may be disposed in the housing. The first terminal may be connected to the first exposed conductor portion and the first wire such that the first exposed conductor portion is electrically connected to the first wire. The second terminal may be connected to the second exposed conductor portion and the second wire such that the second exposed conductor portion is electrically connected to the second wire. The divider may be disposed between the first terminal and the second terminal.
