<p>A connector having an electrically insulating housing (43) comprising electrically conductive connection elements (13, 15, 17) each having two first contact members (1, 3, 5) and a connection member (7, 9, 11) as well as two electrically parallel arranged, normally closed switches each of which in the closed condition forms an electric connection between one of the connection elements (15) and a first terminal (23) of a resistance element (25), the second terminal of which (27) is electrically conductively connected to another connection element (13). Each switch comprises an operating member (39, 41) which is capable of cooperating with a plug to be inserted into the housing (43) so that when the plug is inserted the switch in question is opened. In order to be able to construct the connector in a simple manner from a comparatively small number of components to be manufactured in series production, at least the part of each connection element (13, 15, 17) which comprises the first contact members (1, 3, 5) is formed from one piece of sheet material while an electrically conductive switching plate (29) also formed from one piece of sheet material is connected to a terminal (23) of the resistance element (25). The switching plate (29) comprises a first switching contact (31, 33) of each of the two switches, the second switching contact (35, 37) of which forms one assembly with the said part of one of the operating elements (15).</p> |
