Abstract: There is disclosed a ground pin blade having an improved design having a vastly enhanced resistance to fatigue failure. There is also disclosed a molded electrical connector plug utilizing the ground pin blade. The ground pin blade is a channel-shaped member having the sidewalls of its end which is embedded in the molded plug body flared outwardly from a channel shape to an included side wall angle of about 90 degrees. The channel member has an aperture in its bottom wall adjacent the transition between the flared and unflared portion and this aperture receives the electrical conductor for the ground conductor of the electrical cord. The ground pin blade is intended primarily for use in a molded-on, electrical plug useful in life support equipment and, for this purpose, a plurality of strain relief members are used to firmly secure the assembly of the molded plug and electrical conductors.
