Abstract
An electrical connector assembly, which can easily disengage a first connector from a second connector without damaging constructional elements when excessive rotational moment is exerted on the one connector when connected to the second connector, is provided. The electrical connector assembly includes a first connector and a second connector that connect with each other. The first connector includes a first housing, a first contact, and a latch. The second connector includes a second housing having a second contact and a shell attached to the second housing so as to cover the second housing.
