An internally switched female receptacle or connector for use with IEC 60309-2 configuration plugs and the like. Various plug-latching and plug-actuated safety interlock arrangements coordinate strictly axial plug movement relative to the receptacle with the closing and opening of sleeve contacts and terminal pressure contacts. A continuous ground feature ensures grounding of the primary electrical circuit throughout plug insertion and withdrawal. An optional low-current lighting control circuit powers an LED status indicator. A modular clocking design enables variable angular positioning of the terminals during manufacture.

A connector according to one aspect of the present disclosure comprises two connection terminals, two wires, a connector housing, a cover, and an interlock connector (200). The interlock connector (200) has two first terminals (210), two second terminals (220), two flexible wires (230), a first housing (240), a second housing (250), and a holder (260). The holder (260) holds the first housing (240) and the second housing (250) movably in the plane direction. Each flexible wire (230) has an extra length portion (230a) that is pulled out from the holder (260) to the outside of the holder (260) and allows the first housing (240) and the second housing (250) to move in the plane direction with respect to the holder (260). The connector housing has a fixing portion that fixes the holder (260).

A connector includes an interlock housing to which interlock terminals are provided in addition to a lever that performs connection and disconnection of main terminals with respect to a mating connector. Connection of HVILs is performed in a manner such that after the main terminals are mutually connected through a rotation operation of the lever, a sliding operation of the lever is performed and the interlock housing is pressed down to position the interlock housing on a closing position. Disconnection of the main terminals is performed in a manner such that after the interlock housing is pulled up and positioned on an opening position to mutually disconnect the HVILs, the sliding operation of the lever is performed and the rotation operation of the lever is performed.

An electrical receptacle assembly comprising a housing defined by a first compartment and a second compartment removably securable to each other by means of fasteners. The first compartment has an operative sidewall defining a first opening and an operative base defining a second opening, wherein the first opening has hourly graduations with a corresponding first securing formation for each graduation on the operative front face of the sidewall facing the outside of the first compartment. A sleeve formation extends from the sidewall defining the first opening and surrounding the graduation. A terminal block configured to be securely fitted within the first opening. The terminal block has second securing formations complementary to the first securing formations on the first opening to enable the terminal block to be rotatably mounted in the first opening corresponding to a desired voltage rating.

A contact stopper is provided and includes a conductor receiving receptacle and a protective housing. The protective housing includes a body and a fork-shaped mating section positioned opposite the conductor receiving receptacle. The fork-shaped mating section includes a pair of contact slots that run parallel to a length thereof and extends into an interior of the body.

A connector includes two connection terminals to be electrically connected to terminals of another connector, and a switch connected to the connection terminals. The switch includes a first switch connected to one of the connection terminals, the first switch including a first fixed part including a fixed contact, and a first movable part including a movable contact that is contactable by the fixed contact, and a second switch connected to another of the connection terminals, the second switch including a second fixed part including a fixed contact, and a second movable part including a movable contact that is contactable by the fixed contact. The first fixed part and the second fixed part, or the first movable part and the second movable part include multiple contacts.
