Electrical connector for electrical connection to insulation displacement terminals

摘要

An electrical connector to connect to an insulation displacement terminal in which a housing body has integral latches to releasably hold the body to a connector. A chamber within the body has an entrance for insulated conductor which may form part of a cable. One side of the body has an access opening to the chamber and to a terminal position for the conductor at which the conductor is connectable to an electrical contact blade extending from the body. A conductor strain relief is also accessible through the opening and a cover is locatable in snap-on manner over the opening. Preferably, the cover covers the strain relief to prevent removal of the conductor and the strain relief is integral with the body.
