Abstract: A dielectric housing with a forward mating portion, a flange and a rear portion. The forward mating portion is receivable in a cutout in a mounting panel. The flange extends from the housing and is dimensioned larger than the cutout. The rear portion has a rear face with terminal-receiving cavities extending inwardly through the rear face. A top surface of the forward mating portion extends from the flange at an obtuse angle, the top surface is essentially perpendicular to a forward mating face of the forward mating portion of the housing. The terminal-receiving cavities extend from the rear face to the forward mating face, with the longitudinal axis of the terminal-receiving receiving cavities extending in a straight line. The forward mating face of the housing is angled relative to the flange and the mounting panel to prevent condensation from occurring on the forward mating face.

Abstract: An electrical connector having electrical terminals and a housing. The housing has a terminal-receiving portion with terminal-receiving cavities for receiving the electrical terminals therein. At least one latch-receiving slot is positioned between adjacent terminal-receiving cavities. A cover portion is provided for covering the terminal-receiving cavities and the terminals. The cover portion has latches which cooperate with the at least one latch-receiving slot when the cover portion is moved to a closed position. A hinge portion connects the terminal-receiving portion to the cover portion. The hinge is deformable to allow the cover portion to move between an open position in which the terminals can be inserted and removed from the terminal-receiving cavities of the terminal-receiving portion and the closed position in which the terminals are secured in the terminal-receiving cavities of the terminal-receiving portion.
