A charging socket includes a housing formed of an electrically insulating material, a cavity in the housing receiving an electrical contact, and a dual-functional element partially protruding from an outer surface of the housing. The dual-functional element has a fixing component and a drainage component. The fixing component protrudes from the housing and fixes the housing to a mounting bracket. The drainage component has a drainage channel within the housing discharging fluids from the charging socket.

An electrical connector comprises a contact-carrying body having a plurality of electrical terminals, a slide member slidably mounted within the contact-carrying body and having a rack, an upper body mounted to the contact-carrying body, and a lever pivotally mounted on the upper body. The lever has a toothed wheel engaging the rack; movement of the lever between an inoperative position and an operative position moves the slide member between a retracted position and an advanced position. The lever has arms and a handle. Each arm of the lever has a telescoping structure including a first arm portion and a second arm portion slidably mounted to the first arm portion and connected to the handle. A movable portion including the second arm portion of each arm and the handle is movable with respect to each of the first arm portions between an elongated lever position and a shortened lever position.

An electrical connector is disclosed having a first connector member, a second connector member, and a connector position assurance element. The first connector member has a stop surface with flanking projections. The second connector member is complimentary to the first connector member and has a stop element with a second raised portion. The connector position assurance element is slidably mountable on the first connector member and has a first engagement portion and a second engagement portion. The first engagement portion engages the flanking projections when the first connector member is completely mated to the second connector member in a final mating position. The second engagement portion is spaced a distance from the first engagement portion in a longitudinal direction of the connector position assurance element, and is engaged with the second raised portion when the first connector member is mated to the second connector member in the final mating position.

The present invention relates to an electrical plug-in connector () in particular for high-voltage connections, comprising an outer body () having a plug opening () for receiving a mating plug-in connector (), a terminal housing ('&#x2033;) for fastening an electrical contact (), and a finger protection member () projecting into the plug-in direction (X) towards the plug opening (). Further, the present invention relates to a finger protection member () for an electrical high-voltage plug-in connector (), with a bar-shaped body having a protection end (), and to a construction kit for a high-voltage electrical plug-in connector (), comprising an outer body () with a plug opening () for receiving a mating plug-in connector (), and at least one terminal housing (&#x2032;&#x2033;) for fastening an electrical contact (). Finally, the present invention relates to a method for assembling a plug-in connector (), in particular for high-voltage connections, wherein a terminal housing (&#x2032;&#x2033;) of the plug-in connector () is inserted into an outer body () of the plug-in connector () having a plug opening () which opens towards a plug-in direction (X) of the plug-in connector (). In order to provide a plug-in connector () which is more plug-compatible than 1 known connectors with a finger protection device (), yet user friendly, the present invention provides that the finger protection member () is a separate piece engaged with the terminal housing (&#x2032;&#x2033;).
