Abstract: A canister assembly is provided including electrical connector having a plate which may be moved between a first and second position in order to lock a wire to the electrical connector. The electrical connector provides for a wire trap contact in order to quickly insert a conductor within the electrical connector through an end face of the electrical connector. The electrical connector includes flanges which allow it to be easily mounted to a canister and enclose an opening of the canister. The plate provides for a strain relief for the wires terminated by the electrical connector.

Abstract: A electronic module socket for interconnecting an electronic module to a circuit board includes an insulative housing having an elongated central cavity having multiple formed tuning fork contacts to provide electrical connection and retain an electronic module within the central cavity. The contacts include a contact end which extends transversely from the socket and engages conductive members of a circuit board for surface mounting of the socket thereon. The socket includes a latch to provide a locking and an ejector mechanism for an electronic module.
