Abstract
An electrical connector comprises a pair of mating dielectric connector bodies each having a plurality of electrical contacts which engage the electrical contacts of the other when the connector bodies are coupled. The coupled connector bodies are locked together by a projection on one connector body and a cooperating lock arm which is part of a resilient metal clip which is attached to the other connector body and which engages an electrical contact on the one connector body when the coupled connector bodies are locked together. The resilient metal clip has a central slot for attaching a conductor to the clip and for disengaging the lock arm with a screwdriver or the like.
