Abstract
An electrical connector set includes a socket and two plugs. The socket includes a connector casing forming two adjacent insertion slots. The two insertion slots are arranged in an arrangement direction and extend parallel to an insertion direction. The connector casing includes a dividing wall, separating the two insertion slots. The dividing wall has an indentation at the insertion openings of the two insertion slots. The two plugs can be inserted into the two insertion slots in the insertion direction respectively. Each plug has two protrusions at two opposite sides thereof in the arrangement direction. The two protrusions are staggered in a vertical direction perpendicular to the arrangement direction and the insertion direction. When the two plugs are inserted into the two insertion slots, the two protrusions between the two plugs are located in the indentation and staggered in the vertical direction.
