An electrical connector and a tab plate therefor. The connector comprises a first tab plate (4) in the form of a metal sheet (5) from which a plurality of tabs (18) has been struck out so as to be upstanding from the sheet (5) and so as to leave openings (26) therein and an insulating housing (2) secured to the tab plate (4) and surrounding the tabs (18) thereof. A second and similar tab plate (4), also secured to the housing (2), is arranged in superposition with the first tab plate (4), the tabs (18) of the second tab pate (4) extending into the housing (2) through the openings (26) in the first tab plate (4). The tabs of each tab plate may be arranged in rows, the numbers of tabs (18) in each row, being unequal and the first tab plate (4) housing at least one sheet (28) for receiving a tab of the second tab plate (4 min ). |
