Abstract (en)

An electrical connector has a moulded plastics housing (1) holding a plurality of electrical contacts (3). The contacts (3) are retained in the housing by contact at the rear with an abutment (11) moulded in the housing (1) and at the front by spring tines (7) co-operating with an abutment (12). The contacts (3) may each be removed from either the front or the rear of the housing (1). For forward extraction the respective spring tine (7) is depressed while for rearward extraction the contact (3) is pivoted on an embossment (9) which causes the rear of the contact (3) to come clear of the abutment (11).
