    Abstract: Power connector modules are provided that can be plug connectors, receptacle connectors, or a system of plug and receptacle connector modules and optionally other modules, that mate together. Each connector has an uncoupled contact feature. The uncoupled contacts have exposed surfaces to dissipate heat resulting from Joule effects. The uncoupled contacts for the plug connector converge to form a blade structure at one side. The uncoupled contacts for the receptacle connector form a receiving section that engages the blade structure of the plug connector when the plug connector and receptacle connector are used together.

    Abstract: A female terminal with a passageway is defined by generally spaced apart sidewalls for receiving a male terminal. The passageway may be configured from two U-shaped channels, with a primary contact and a sacrificial contact stamped from each sidewall of each U-shaped channel with the sacrificial contacts located forward of the primary contact. The sacrificial contacts are disposed in the direction of insertion of the male terminal into the passageway, and are separated from the sidewall by apertures above and below the sacrificial contact so that any residue from arcing is mostly contained at the edges of the sacrificial contacts.

    Abstract: A female terminal with a mating end suited for receiving a male pin with flat surfaces and a circuit-connecting end for connection to a wire. A terminal-receiving passageway at the mating end has two spaced apart sidewalls, which may be in the form of U-shaped channels, extending lengthwise along the passageway with one or more slots separating the U-shaped channels. Enlarged flat contacting surfaces are formed in the opposing sidewalls and are disposed at an angle to the sidewalls. The sidewalls resiliently flex apart from each other as the male pin is inserted into the passageway such that the angled contacting surfaces become coplanar with the flat surfaces of the male pin and electrically contact the male pin over a greater area than that provided by dimples. One or more notches may be disposed at selected points in the sidewalls of the female terminal to better define and control the flexing characteristics of the spaced apart sidewalls.

    Abstract: A plug detection electrical receptacle includes a dielectric housing having at least one passage with an open mating end for receiving a male terminal of a complementary mating electrical plug and an opposite end communicating with a switch on a substrate. A female terminal is disposed in the passage for engagement by the male terminal. A detect switch is located in proximity to the passage for actuation by the male terminal when the male terminal is inserted into the passage in engagement with the female terminal. The detect switch includes an actuator at the opposite end of the passage, the actuator including a male terminal engaging portion and a switch engaging portion. A first flexible skirt extends from the actuator about the periphery thereof into sealing engagement with the substrate about the switch thereon. The flexible skirt supports the actuator with the switch engaging portion out of engagement with the switch on the substrate. The skirt flexes in response to engagement of the actuator by the male terminal to move the switch engaging portion into engagement with the switch. A second flexible skirt depends from the actuator and mounts the switch engaging portion thereon. The second flexible skirt flexes to allow for overtravel of the actuator after the switch engaging portion has engaged the switch on the substrate.

    Abstract: An electrical wire strain relief and wire management system is integrally molded with a wall of an electrical receptacle housing to hold up to two electrical wires against the receptacle housing wall. A pair of side-by-side longitudinal channels extend along the wall of the receptacle housing for receiving the electrical wires. Each channel has an outer wall, with an intermediate wall shared by both channels. Each outer wall includes an inwardly directed ledge overhanging its respective channel. The shared intermediate wall includes common ledges overhanging both channels at a location spaced longitudinally of the channels from the inwardly directed ledges. The transverse distance between the ledges and the common ledges is less than the cross-dimensions of the wires so that the inwardly directed ledges and the common ledges define serpentine passages for insertion of the wires into the channels.
