The inner plug connector part can be fixed in the housing of the electronics unit independently of the housing part. Securing means connect the plug connector bodies to one another so that the housing part is fixed between the plug connector bodies.

A plug-in connector having terminal provided in terminal receiving cavities. The terminals have memory card engagement sections. A memory card receiving slot is provided in the housing. The memory card receiving slot spans the terminal receiving cavities. A portion of the memory card receiving slot is in alignment with each of the terminal receiving cavities. An elongated opening extends between the memory card receiving slot and the terminal receiving cavities. A memory card is positioned in the memory card receiving slot. The memory card stores data which is identifiable to the specific device and allows the data to be easily conveyed.

A powered wall plate may include a face plate comprising an opening extending through the face plate from the first surface to the rear surface. A first keyed interface may be formed at the rear surface of the face plate. An electrical receptacle may comprise a second keyed interface configured to be coupled with the first keyed interface, the electrical receptacle further comprising terminals disposed on sides of the electrical receptacle. Spring-biased terminals may be coupled to the face plate and coupled with the terminals. A powered feature may be coupled to the face plate and configured to be electrically coupled to the electrical receptacle through the spring-biased terminals when the first keyed interface and the second keyed interface are mateably coupled. Power may not be supplied from the electrical receptacle to the powered feature when the first keyed interface is not mateably coupled with the second keyed interface.

A connector includes a housing, a first electrode and a second electrode. The housing further includes a first body, bending parts, foolproof key positions, a second buckle, a first opening and a second opening. The first body forms a first accommodating space and a second accommodating space. The first accommodating space is provided with the foolproof key positions, the first opening, the second opening and the second buckle. The second buckle can be arranged corresponding to a first buckle of the wire end connector to buckle the wire end connector in the first accommodating space and the second accommodating space. The first electrode includes a first end and a third end, and the third end forms first current divider pins. The second electrode includes a second end and a fourth end, and the fourth end forms second current divider pins.

Embodiments of a modular plug connector system for vehicles may include a module housing having a first housing part with a plurality of uniform first plug places having interfaces for receiving a respective first adapter from a first adapter group, wherein the first adapter group has a plurality of first adapters of different types which have, on their outer sides, uniform interfaces for positioning in the first plug places of the first housing part, wherein the adapters have a different internal geometry for accommodating differently designed plug connectors. The module housing also has a second housing part with a plurality of uniform second plug places having interfaces for receiving a respective second adapter from a second adapter group, wherein the second adapter group has a plurality of second adapters of different types which have, on their outer sides, uniform interfaces for positioning in the second plug places of the second housing part, wherein the adapters have a different internal geometry for accommodating differently designed mating connectors. The outer sides of the first adapter and the second adapter and their corresponding plug places are may form a primary safety device for securing the adapters in their respective plug places when the corresponding adapter is inserted into an end position in the plug places.
