Abstract
An electrical connector comprises a connector body having a longitudinal cavity which receives an electrical terminal to be retained therein. The terminal is retained in the connector body by a latch portion of the terminal which is protracted by a central rib in the cavity into engagement with a latch shoulder in the cavity. The latch is normally in a retracted position to provide protection against damage and entanglement during handling.
