Abstract
An electrical connector assembly is comprised of a housing member having a slidable cover, together which is interconnectable to a header member. The header includes camming grooves positioned on inside surfaces of upstanding walls whereas the connector assembly includes locking lugs positioned on outside surfaces of the cover member. The cover member is transversely slidable relative to the housing such that moving the cover transversely can bring the connector assembly into full electrical engagement with the header assembly.
