A connector socket of the integrated wire termination system (IWTS) type adapted to receive any one of a plurality of different types of "standard" terminal (connector) pins inserted therein by a split sleeve tool. The socket includes a spring-biased pawl for engaging the annular shoulder on the terminal pin to lock it therein. A split sleeve spring biases the pawl against the periphery of the annular shoulder for large area of electrical contact between the socket and the pin. The socket is deep enough to receive terminal pins having different lengths of tips. A switch contact or terminal rivet structure may be provided on the front end. Insertion of a tool from the rear allows release of the terminal pin.
