A female connector and a male connector are disclosed. The female connector includes a ring-shaped outer wall, a first terminal seat, a second terminal seat, and a third terminal seat. The male connector includes a front connecting block. A front end surface of the front connecting block includes a first terminal hole, a second terminal hole, and a third terminal hole. The first terminal hole has a first terminal supporting surface. The second terminal hole has a second terminal supporting surface. The third terminal hole has a third terminal supporting surface.

A compensating plug connector comprising a plug, a receptacle mating zone, a cable mating zone and an intermediate zone. Each of the zones is such that Near End Cross Talk (NEXT) resulting from transmission of the high frequency signal across each zone is below a specified amount chosen such that NEXT introduced by a high frequency signal transmission between via all the zones is below a level as specified for the cabling category.

A first connector, a second connector and an electrical connector assembly having the first connector and the second connector are provided. The first connector includes an insulating housing and a locking plate embedded in the insulating housing, and a plurality of first power terminals, a plurality of first signal terminals and a plurality of first braking terminals mounted in the insulating housing; the locking plate is provided with a locking mechanism protruding upwardly. The second connector includes a terminal block, a cover body covering the terminal block, a locking slidable cover slidably mounted on the cover body and a plurality of second power terminals, a plurality of second signal terminals and a plurality of second braking terminals mounted in the terminal block. The locking slidable cover is capable of sliding forwardly and rearwardly relative to the cover body, and is capable of being locked together with the locking mechanism. It is adapted to a servo motor, saves space and is easy to assemble.

Electrical wiring devices that incorporate clamp-type wire terminal connections are described. The electrical wiring devices include for example, single and duplex blade-type electrical receptacles, blade-type locking electrical receptacles, single or multi-pole electrical switches, combination switches and blade-type receptacles, blade-type plugs for electrical cords and blade-type connectors for electrical cords. The electrical wiring devices include a plurality of contact assemblies. Each contact assembly includes a wire terminal and a plunger.

An electrical connector includes a male electrical plug, a female socket, a housing, and a control system. The male electrical plug, which is supplied with power, is electrically connected to the female socket. The housing contains the male electrical plug, the female socket, and a control system. The control system includes a temperature sensor and a transceiver with the temperature sensor sensing a temperature at a location within the housing and the transceiver transmitting a signal representative of the temperature to an alarm device remotely located from the electrical connector. The electrical connector can include one or more switches that are remotely controllable by the alarm device to interrupt the electrical connection between the male plug and the female socket.

An electrical connector body is provided includes first and second housing portions formed from molded plastic. The housing portions include first and second interface surfaces that are configured to butt against one another to define a housing and one or more electrical components are disposed within an interior of the housing. The one or more electrical components may comprise connectors of a male or female cord cap, an in-line surge suppression circuit, and/or a compact automatic transfer switch. In one implementation, each of the first and second connector body portions may include a strain relief extension for engaging an electrical cord and a compression member (3691) may be disposed over the strain relief extensions to secure together the first and second connector body portions. The compression member may be selected from a set of compression members based on a size of the electrical cord.
