Abstract
An electrical connector assembly for use in establishing electrical communication between a control module and a motor/generator in a hybrid electro-mechanical transmission includes an insulating wire isolator and nuts nonrotatably preassembled thereto. The electrical connector reduces the quantity of loose parts during transmission assembly. The nuts, being nonrotatably connected to the isolator, which in turn is affixed with respect to a motor housing, are able to accept torque from bolts without assisted retention.
