An electrical connector assembly comprises a connector shell configured to interface with a mating connector shell, a coupling member configured to receive the connector shell and having an internal thread engaging the mating connector shell, and a retaining member configured to retain the connector shell in the coupling member. The connector shell has a plurality of ratchet teeth and defines a longitudinal axis. The plurality of ratchet teeth form a first ratchet ring and a second ratchet ring around the connector shell.

Electrical connector assembly

A device of forming a plug base for an electric relay to be fit through an opening in a panel is disclosed. The device comprises a body having a plurality of electric sockets and a width. An electric relay is part of the device and has pins engageable in respective electric sockets of the body and has a plug position where the sockets and the pins are engaged in an approach position where the sockets and pins are in contact. Snap-in resilient lugs are mounted adjacent the body and are flexible between a first position where the lugs are elastically contracted towards the center of the body and a second position in which the lugs are in a normal, non-contracted position. Each of the lugs has a width substantially equal to the width of the body. The relay, when the relay is in the plug and the approach positions, prevents the resilient lugs from moving to the first position.
