An electrical receptacle terminal having forwardly extending and inwardly folded opposing cantilevered contact arms from a box-like structure which further includes at least one port for the receipt of a locking latch of a housing for receiving said receptacle terminal therein, characterized in that a tab extends inwardly from the body portion at the port for abutment by the free end of the contact arm. The tab enables the latching function and the electrical and mechanical function of the contact arms to be effectively isolated from one and other in a one piece receptacle terminal having a protective shell surrounding the contact arms.
