Electrical connector assembly

摘要

A connector assembly (100) has a base (116) and a cover (114). The base (116) has first base terminals (106) and second base terminals (108) for engaging an equipment member. The first (106) and second (108) base terminals include tabs (138, 140) at a first end thereof. The cover (114) has cover terminals (104), with each cover terminal (104) comprising a tab (144) at first end (148) and at least one receptacle (150) at a second end (152) thereof. The tabs (144) of the cover terminals (104) are configured to releasably engage a first mating electrical connector and the receptacles (150) are configured to releasably engage the tabs (138) of the first base terminals (106) or the tabs (140) of the second base terminals (108). The configuration of the first base terminals (106) and the second base terminals (108) allows alternate covers (114) to be releasably mounted on the base (116) as required.
