ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR LOCK WITH GAUGE PIN

摘要

ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR LOCK WITH GAUGE PIN An electrical connector has dielectric connector bodies which are coupled and locked together by a resilient lock member of one connector body which snaps past and engages a lock member of the other connector body. The resilient lock member includes a slot which extends through one end and a lock shoulder which faces the opposite end. The other lock member includes a lock shoulder and a loop which passes through the slot of the resilient lock member and cooperatively forms a gauge hole of predetermined minimum size with the resilient lock member when the connector bodies are coupled and locked together by the lock shoulders. A gauge pin having a shank of substantially the same predetermined minimum size is disposed in the gauge hole to indicate that the connector bodies are locked together by the lock shoulders.
