Abstract
An electrical connector includes a plurality of terminals, each of the terminals configured of a flat connecting plate defining a first plane and first and second connecting heads extending from opposing edges of the connecting plate. First and second insulating bodies are provided having confronting first and second generally flat surfaces defining a second plane which is substantially perpendicular to the first plane. Each of the insulating bodies has a plurality of grooves formed therein for receiving one of the connecting heads and a portion of the flat connecting plate of each of the plurality of terminals. Through-holes are provided in each of the first and second insulating bodies which extend from the grooves to an outer surface of each of the insulating bodies.
