Abstract

The electrical connector has a plug (1) that has an intermediate plate (7) from which projects a metal pin and other location elements (8). The socket has a pl0astic body and is formed with a removable contact sleeve (2) that is retained by a clip (13). When brought together the pin engages first followed by the other contacts.
