Abstract

An electrical connector comprises a dielectric housing member in which signal and ground terminal members are secured with contact sections of the terminal members in alignment with respective openings at a front end of the housing member into which a pin terminal and a ground rail of a panelboard extend for electrical connection with the contact sections of the signal and ground terminal members. Termination sections of the signal and ground terminal members extend outwardly from a rear end of the housing member for terminating the signal and ground conductors of a cable thereto. A securing section is part of the signal terminal member or ground terminal member for securing a section of the cable therein as a cable strain relief. Dielectric cover members are latchably secured together onto the housing member and covering the termination sections terminated to the signal and ground conductors and the securing section secured to the cable section and engaging the cable as an added cable strain relief.
