A circuit arrangement (1), in particular for an electrically driven motor vehicle, has at least one bus bar (5) which is connected electrically to a supplier (2) and which is connected to a first consumer (3) at a first transfer point (6) and to a second consumer (4) at a second transfer point (7). Both the first and the second transfer point (6, 7) are formed as flexible contact points.

An electrical connector assembly includes an electrical connector and a CPU. The electrical connector includes an insulative housing defining a receiving cavity, and a plurality of contacts retained to the housing with corresponding contacting sections exposed in the receiving cavity. A first securing piece is attached upon the CPU, and a second securing piece is attached upon the housing. When the CPU is received within the receiving cavity, the first securing piece is locked with the second securing piece so as to have the CPU retained to the connector in position wherein the corresponding contacts of the electrical connector are mechanically and electrically connected to the corresponding contacting pads of the CPU in a compression manner reliably.
