The present disclosure describes various alternative embodiments of plug force testers, in particular devices well-suited for testing aircraft ground power connection plugs. The disclosed plug force testers provide a fixed, well-supported position for test pins on which a plug is inserted, which can be positioned to correspond to a height or orientation of the pins in an actual aircraft. Embodiments described also may include means for preventing excessive force application during testing.

An electrical connector including a housing having a terminal channel with a power terminal in the terminal channel. The electrical connector includes a temperature sensor assembly positioned in the chamber. The temperature sensor assembly includes a sealing pad holding the power terminal and a thermal shunt held by the sealing pad. A temperature sensor is coupled to the thermal shunt. The sealing pad is electrically insulative and has a terminal opening receiving the power terminal. The sealing pad is thermally coupled to the power terminal and thermally coupled to the thermal shunt. The thermal shunt has a thermal conductivity higher than a thermal conductivity of the sealing pad. The temperature sensor monitors the temperature of the power terminal through a thermal path defined by the sealing pad and the thermal shunt.
