Abstract

The receptacle contact (10) includes a box-shaped contact section (12) with its upper wall folded over to provide protrusions (36) to abut against the tip of a resilient arm (48). Such receptacle contacts (10) are inserted into contact receiving cavities (42) in the connector housing (44). A double-lock member (150) may be used for double locking the contacts.
