Abstract

An electrical connector comprises a base having a plurality of passageways for receiving a number of contacts, a cover mounted to the base and including a plurality of through holes corresponding to the passageways, and a lid having two opposite edges. One edge is mounted upon the cover to drive the cover to move relative to the base, and the other edge locks the base when the lid is located at a close position relative to the base.
