An improved high voltage igniter connector for aircraft applications. An insulator projecting from the cable connector extends into a tubular insulator in the igniter. An electrical contact at the free end of the connector insulator is urged into contact with a center electrode terminal in the igniter. A resilient annular first seal is formed between the connector and an end of the igniter insulator. A resilient annular second seal is located between the connector insulator and the interior wall of the igniter insulator near the free end of the connector insulator to increase resistance to flashover at the connector.
