An edge connector assembly for effecting electrical connection to a plurality of connection tabs arranged along and adjacent an edge of an inserted printed circuit board. The connector assembly generally includes an insulated housing and a plurality of like spring terminals mounted in the housing. Each terminal has a contact portion engaging a connection tab. The housing includes a first wall having a front portion overlying the board and a rear portion. A second wall is parallel to and spaced from the first wall and is joined to the rear portion thereof. A lip support extends from the second wall canted away from the first wall. An edge receiving slot is defined between the lip support and the overlying portion of the first wall for receiving the edge of the board therein. A plurality of terminal receiving cavities are formed between the first and second walls, each cavity including terminal mounting means on the first wall for mounting the terminals so that the contact portion thereof is disposed in the edge receiving slot for engagement with the connection tabs. The board is rotatable within the edge receiving slot from a non-engaging position wherein the contact portions are spaced from the connection tabs to a mounted position where the contact portions are engaging the connection tabs. Locking means are formed on the overlying portion of the first wall for cooperating with the board for holding the board in the mounted position.
