An underwater electrical connection assembly comprising: a contact pin (2) comprising an axially extending conductive core (5) with front (7) and rear (11) portions each having a respective electrical contact surface (8,13), and an annular insulation portion (17) around said conductive core (5) extending axially rearwardly from the front portion (7) of the conductive core (5) ; a chamber (18) containing insulating fill material which surrounds the annular insulation portion (17) of the contact pin (2) where it extends axially rearwardly from a first axial position; and an earth guide member (32) extending rearwardly from said first axial position to a second axial position rearward of the first axial position, said earth guide member (32) extending rearwardly from adjacent to the annular insulation portion (17) at said first axial position to radially outward of said annular insulation portion (17) at said second axial position.
