Abstract
An electrical connector includes a connector housing having a base, a flange, and a plug. The connector housing has a contact channel holding a contact. The electrical connector includes a latch member integral with the connector housing and located within the flange. The latch member includes a deflectable latch arm and a latching finger extending from the latch arm. The plug is configured to be inserted into a panel opening of the panel in a loading direction. The connector housing is movable laterally relative to the panel in a latching direction to a latched position. The plug is movable in the panel opening in the latching direction. The latching finger engages an inner edge of the panel opening when the housing is in the latched position to hold the connector housing in the latched position.
