An socket assembly mounted on a printed circuit board for receiving a IC package, comprises an insulative housing defining a plurality of passageways, a plurality of contacts received in the passageways and a pick-up cap covering the insulative housing. The insulative housing has four sidewalls surrounding the passageways. The pick-up cap has three steps, a first step covering the passageways of the housing, a second step seated on top faces of the sidewalls, and a third step set against the printed circuit board. The three steps of the pick-up cap can efficiently protect the insulative housing and the contacts.
