A plasma generator that detects whether a connector of a head is electrically connected to a power cable. The plasma generator includes the head including the connector with a terminal to supply electricity to electrodes that generate plasma by electrical discharge, and a first terminal and a second terminal that are connected to each other; a power cable to supply electricity to the terminal; a cable to transmit a signal to the first terminal; a first ground cable to ground the second terminal; and a detector to detect a signal current that flows in a path from the cable to the first ground cable in accordance with transmission of the signal.

The present disclosure is directed to an internal conductor configured as a movable element, thereby providing a connector for preventing the occurrence of the breakdown or damage of a pin of a male connector.

Connector receptacles that can provide audible feedback to inform a user that a card has been properly inserted, and can include structures to protect contacts in a connector receptacle from damage due to an improper card insertion. An example can provide a connector receptacle having a click module to provide audible feedback indicating that a card has been fully inserted. Another example can provide a connector receptacle having movable contacts that can remain out of an insertion path until the card is at least partially inserted.

A connection assembly of a connector comprises a connection housing, a locking element and a position assurance device. The connection housing is interconnectable with a counter connection housing along a connection axis. The locking element is movable between a locking position fixing the counter connection housing to the connection housing, and a release position releasing the counter connection housing from the connection housing. The position assurance device movable between a disconnection position, in which the position assurance device permits movement of the locking element from the locking position to the release position, and a blocking position, in which the position assurance device fixes the locking element in the locking position. The position assurance device is rotated about the connection axis on the connection housing when moving between the disconnection position and the blocking position.
