Abstract
The present relates to an electrical connector system which includes a first connector assembly having a first connector and a second connector to be coupled one to the other; a second connector assembly having a third connector and a housing contiguous to the first connector, the housing having an open connecting face for receiving within a complementary part of the third connector so as to perform a coupling one to the other. This connector system may include a movable element which is movable between two positions, i.e.: a “first position” in which it masks at least partially the open connecting face, so that it makes impossible the coupling with the third connector; a “second position” in which it does not mask the front open connecting face, so that it makes possible the coupling with the third connector; the movable element being able to be moved into the “second position” only when said first and second connectors are fully coupled together.
