Abstract
An on-board charge port connector for an electrical vehicle positioned within an opening in the vehicle body. The on-board connector includes an electrical unit having a housing and a plurality of terminal pins. The electrical unit is inserted into a backside opening in a modular unit in a snap-type engagement. The modular unit is secured to the opening in the vehicle's body. A lip portion radially extending from an end of the modular unit opposite to the end through which the electrical unit was inserted seats against an outer surface of a rim portion of the vehicle body defining the opening. A plurality of biasing members are secured to the modular unit so that they contact an inside surface of the rim portion. A cap is threadably engageable within the modular unit so as to enclose the terminal pins.
