Abstract

An electrical connector comprising an actuating lever for mating the electrical connector with a complementary connector, the actuating lever including a deflectable lever leg with a pivot hole therethrough; and a connector housing having a wall with a pivot pin extending therefrom and being receivable within the hole of the lever leg to establish a pivot for the actuating lever; characterised in that: guide members and cams aligned with the pivot pin are included as part of the connector housing; and guide surfaces and camming surface on the actuating lever that are complementary to the respective guide members and cams of the connector housing such that the hole is aligned with the pin and an end of the leg is deflected over the pin, the lever further including a relief feature so that the lever can be operated once the pivot pin is received in the hole.
