Abstract
Multi-contact electrical connector comprises a housing having a plurality of side-by-side cavities extending therethrough. Each cavity has a terminal therein which has a wire-in-slot connecting means intermediate its ends and a crimpable portion, adjacent to the rearward end of the cavity, which can be crimped onto a wire. The wire-receiving means and the crimpable means are arranged such that a wire can be inserted into the wire-receiving slot and the crimpable portion can be crimped onto the wire in a single stroke of an inserting and crimping tool.
