Abstract
A connector assembly has a device for dual position confirmation and is able to accurately show whether female and male connectors have been completely connected to each other at an appropriate position by a lever using the device for dual position confirmation and also to show the connected state and position of the lever. Rotation of the lever draws the connectors together so that, upon complete mating, a protrusion on the male connector causes release of a hook that retains the device whereby the device becomes tilted to indicate complete connection. The device is moved to a position in which it engages and fixes a handle of the lever.
