Abstract
An electrical terminal housing includes a housing body. The housing body defines a terminal cavity. An insertion opening in the housing body opens into the terminal cavity. A mate opening in the housing body also opens into the terminal cavity. A terminal lock extends from the housing body and is located in the terminal cavity. The terminal lock is adapted to engage an electrical terminal to retain the electrical terminal in the terminal cavity. The terminal lock is offset from the center of a side of the terminal cavity and is located closer to one side wall of the terminal cavity.
