Abstract

A lever type electrical connector assembly includes a first connector having a pivotally mounted actuating lever. A cam groove is formed in a portion of the first connector, and a plurality of terminals are mountable at defined positions. A terminal retainer is positionable on the first connector in a preload position and is movable to a retaining position only when the terminals are in their defined positions. A second connector has a cam follower projection to be engaged in the cam groove of the first connector, whereby the connectors are mated and unmated in response to rotation of the actuating lever. The second connector is blocked from mating with the first connector when the terminal retainer is in its preload position.
