Abstract
An electrical pin field is shown having a printed circuit board having a plurality of pins inserted therethrough, having contact sections positioned on opposite sides of the board. An insulating housing is positioned on one side of the printed circuit board, whereas a housing is positioned on the opposite side, being held in place by way of a locking plate. The locking plate includes two opposing locking arms, which when the locking plate, and housing are fully positioned on the printed circuit board grip the pin terminal portions adjacent to the board, thereby retaining the housing to the board.
