A connector is disclosed which draws static charges to ground. The connector comprises a male plug having a generally non-yielding terminal attached to a projection extending from its mating surface and a female receptacle having at least one terminal mounting cavity in a mating surface and a flexible female terminal in the cavity. The female receptacle has a metal cover on its outer surface which is connected to ground. The male terminal and projection is dimensioned so as to permit insertion through the aperture in the cover and into a slot in the female housing. The flexible female terminal remains contained within the slot of the female housing and below the cover prior to making contact with the male terminal.
