Abstract
An electrical plug connector may include a housing defined by a body, a first prong, and a second prong. The first prong includes a first portion and a second portion including a first recess located on the second portion. The second prong includes a third portion and a fourth portion including a second recess located on the fourth portion. Each of the first prong and second prong outwardly extend from an end of the housing. The first prong may also include a third recess located opposite the first recess and the second prong may also include a fourth recess located opposite the second recess. The recesses arranged on the first prong and second prong are configured to engage a contact member located in a corresponding receptacle of an electrical outlet to retain a position of the electrical plug connector in the electrical outlet and restrict movement in an axial direction.
