An electrical power connector and an electrically conductive terminal are provided. The electrical power connector includes an insulating housing, multiple electrically conductive terminals, and at least one position fixing member. The insulating housing includes multiple column bodies and a convex rib structure, the column bodies extend in a first direction and are arranged at intervals, and the convex rib structure extends in a second direction and is formed in an intersecting arrangement. An inside of the insulating housing has multiple tunnels that correspondingly penetrate through the column bodies in the first direction. Multiple grid passages are formed by the convex rib structure. The electrically conductive terminals are respectively mated in the grid passages and the tunnels. The electrically conductive terminals are each connected to a cable. The at least one position fixing member is embedded on at least one side of the convex rib structure.

An electrical plug connector having a housing and a contact carrier held inside the housing. It comprises an electrically insulating base part and at least one pair of first electrical contacts for transmitting energy and multiple pairs of second electrical contacts for transmitting data. The contacts are held in the base part and arranged so as to be distributed in a plane extending essentially perpendicular relative to the longitudinal axis of the contact elements and the contact carrier. First distance lines between the contacts of the pairs of first contacts are free of overlaps with second distance lines between the contacts of the pairs of second contacts.

In one embodiment, an apparatus includes a connector plug for attachment to a single pair Ethernet cable comprising a pair of conductors, and configured for being received in a connector receptacle. The connector plug includes a first end for receiving the single pair Ethernet cable and a second end having a pair of contacts, each of the contacts comprising a receptacle contact interface, a conductor interface, and an extension to provide an increased width between conductor gripping prongs at the conductor interface while maintaining a consistent spacing between the pair of contacts at the receptacle contact interface with connector plugs configured to mate with different gauge cables. The connector plug comprises a latch for secure attachment to the receptacle and a pull cord connected to the latch and accessible when the connector plug is inserted into the receptacle with other connector plugs for release of the connector plug.

An electrical connector assembly includes a pair of electrical connectors for electrically connecting to one another to close an electric circuit. The assembly further includes a connection indicator attached to one or more of the electrical connectors. The connection indicator generates a feedback, in response to the electrical connectors being one of connected to one another and disconnected from one another. The connection indicator is separate from the electric circuit, and the feedback is at least one of a radio frequency signal (RF signal), an electronic signal, a visible light, and an acoustic signal.

A charging inlet for an electric vehicle includes a housing, a terminal arranged within the housing for engaging with a corresponding mating terminal of a charging plug, and a sensor connectable to a monitoring system of the electric vehicle for detecting the presence of a charging plug installed within the charging inlet.

A board-to-board connector assembly includes first and second connector assemblies and a connector interconnect between the first and second connector assemblies. Each connector assembly includes an outer shell and a connector received in a cavity of the outer shell. The connector has a connector body holding contacts in a card slot, which receives a circuit card edge of an add-in card. The outer shell has an outer board guide configured to engage the add-in card and guide mating of the outer shell with the add-in card. The outer shell has a latch configured to latchably engage the add-in card to secure the connector to the add-in card. The connector interposer electrically interconnects the contacts of the connector assemblies to electrically connect the add-in cards.

A connector includes a housing insertable into a receptacle of a mating connector so as to form a connection and a connector position assurance (CPA) element which is movable relative to the housing between a pre-latching and a final latching position. The CPA element prevents the connection from becoming released in the final latching position. The connector further includes a retainer with a receptacle in a connection direction and an opening transverse thereto. The CPA element is insertable into the receptacle of the retainer. A protrusion is formed on the CPA element, wherein movement of the CPA element from the pre-latching to the final latching position is blocked in a case that the protrusion is engaged with the opening, and the movement of the CPA element is permitted in a case that the protrusion is not engaged with the opening.

The invention relates to a clamping device (5) for an electrical plug-in connection (1), which has a n electrical plug-in connector (2), an electrical mating plug-in connector (3) that can be electrically and mechanically connected to the plug-in connector (2), and a primary latching arrangement (4) for latching the connection between the plug-in connector (2) and the mating plug-in connector (3). Provision is made for the clamping device (5) to be designed to brace the plug-in connector (2) and the mating plug-in connector (3) relative to one another in a connected state in addition to the latching by way of the primary latching arrangement (4).

A connector is provided with a first housing, a second housing to be stacked on and coupled to the first housing and a mating housing to be connected to the first housing and the second housing. The mating housing includes a projecting portion to be arranged between first and second facing surfaces of the first housing and the second housing and capable of contacting the respective facing surfaces of the first housing and the second housing.

A connector has a plug housing and a termination cap housing assembly pivotably attached to the plug housing. The termination cap housing assembly has a pair of contacts secured thereto such that pivoting the termination cap housing assembly to the plug housing terminates the contacts to a pair of wires inserted into the plug housing.
