A plug receptacle electrical connector and a method of manufacturing such a connector. The receptacle connector comprises a moulded insulating cover (1) which receives a moulded insulating base (36) carrying electrical contacts (60) for engaging contacts of a plug connector (100) inserted into a cavity (2) in the cover (1). To enable the connector to be mounted on a circuit board with the contacts (60) connected to circuitry (not shown) on the board, the contacts (60) have lead portions (64) which project beneath the base (36), the bottom of the cover (36) being open to receive the lead portions (64). Rails (48) on the base (36), which engage in grooves (82 and 88) in the cover, being provided on the sides of the base (36) and having thereon latches (50) for engaging shoulders (52A) defined by the grooves (82 and 88). In the manufacture of the connector, the contacts (60) are selectively plated with gold stripes (not shown) for engagement by the contacts of the plug (100). |
