A connector system having tab-like male terminal with stopping shoulders and a female terminal contained in a housing which has an opening for insertion of the male terminal into the female terminal. To provide needed electrical isolation for the female terminal in its unmated condition, the housing extends beyond the male tab receiving outer edge of the female terminal a predetermined distance D1. Because of industry length standards for male tab terminals the shoulders thereon must abut against the outer edge of the female terminal for proper mating. Thin membranes, which are slitted, are formed in the housing to mate with the male tab shoulders and extend from the outer edge of the housing to a distance back of the outer edges of the female terminal to enable the male tab shoulders to push aside the slitted, thin membranes and abut against the outer edge of the female terminal. |
