Abstract

A modular electrical connector coupling has a plurality of connector parts which can be plugged into one another. One of the connector parts has an enveloping housing with double-walled side walls and latching hooks for retaining the other connector parts. A locking slide is inserted into the gap formed by the double-walled side walls and prevents the latching hooks from springing back.
