Abstract
A wire dress cover for an electrical connector. The wire dress cover includes a rear wall with heat dissipating openings which extend therethrough. Side walls and end walls extend from the rear wall. At least one wire receiving opening is provided in the side walls or the end walls. Guards are positioned proximate the heat dissipating openings. The guards have guard side walls with side wall openings which extend therethrough. Top walls of the guards extend from the guard side walls. The top walls extend over at least a portion of the heat dissipating openings. The heat dissipating openings and the side wall openings allow for heat generated inside the wire dress cover to be dissipated to the outside of the wire dress cover, while the top walls of the guards deter material from entering the inside of the wire dress cover.
