Abstract
A poke-in electrical connector includes a housing having a cavity and a poke-in wire channel open to the cavity. The wire channel receives an electrical wire during a poke-in termination. The housing has a bottom with an opening. A poke-in electrical contact is received in the cavity and held by the housing. The poke-in electrical contact includes a base and an arm extending from the base. The base extends through the opening at the bottom for surface mounting to a circuit board. The base has a generally planar solder pad exposed at the bottom for soldering to the circuit board. The arm has a poke-in beam engaging the electrical wire when poked-in to the corresponding wire channel. The arm is movable to a clearance position to release the poke-in beam from the electrical wire to allow the electrical wire to be removed from the wire channel.
