Abstract
An electrical connector unit and having an electrical connector and a connection tab connected to the electrical connector or connecting the electrical connector to a carrier-strip when a carrier strip is included in the electrical connector unit. The connector tab has a weakened shear resistance zone, so when the connection tab is sheared to separate it from the electrical connector or to separate the electrical connector and the carrier-strip, a reduced shearing force is required to shear the connection tab.
