A female receptacle adapted for electrical connection to a male plug includes a premold for housing a pair of clothes-pin type metal female contacts and a D-shaped metal female pin. The premold, which may be made from a relatively rigid material, is housed within an overmold made from a less rigid material. The premold can be of a locking variety or a non-locking variety.

Female receptacle and premold therefor

A housing for female receptacles in a molded female receptacle plug has a body and cover to receive female receptacle connectors. The housing is a premold for the receptacle plug. Female receptacles may be engaged in the housing and simultaneously crimped to wires in a cord set. The body and cover are interengagable. They can be snap fit or slide fitted together with female receptacle crimp ends on necks extending through the housing safe from mold plastic flashing in molding, when load bars are conventionally engaged into blade openings in the housing. The assembly of the housing and female receptacle is automatable with labor and material economies obtained in the molding and from automatable assembly and simultaneous crimpability of the engaged female receptacles.
