Abstract: An electrical connector includes a connector housing configured for attachment to an electrical enclosure. A first side of the connector housing faces an inside of the electrical enclosure and a second side of the connector housing faces an outside of the electrical enclosure. The connector housing may include a connector aperture configured to receive an electrical conductor, which may extend between the first and second sides of the connector housing. The connector housing may further include a ventilation pathway separate from the connector aperture that defines a fluid communication path between the first side and the second side of the connector housing.

Abstract: The present disclosure includes an adjustable circuit board assembly including a circuit board, a header connected to the circuit board, and a matrix connector. The header may be configured for connection with the circuit board via a connection matrix and the matrix connector. A method of manufacturing a circuit board assembly may include providing a circuit board, providing a terminal header having a plurality of terminals, providing a connection matrix to at least one of the circuit board and the terminal header, providing a matrix connector, connecting the terminal header with the circuit board via the matrix connector and the connection matrix, and connecting the plurality of terminals to the circuit board.

Abstract: In at least one embodiment, a connector assembly for being positioned on a vehicle is provided. The connector assembly includes first and second connector portions. The first connector portion defines a first and second channels. Each of the first and second channels are positioned on opposite sides of the first connector portion. The first connector portion includes a first contact member and a second contact member. The second connector portion includes a first shutter and a second shutter positioned on an outer surface of the second connector portion. Each of the first shutter and the second shutter are configured to receive the first contact member and the second contact member, respectively. Each of the first and second shutters pivot about an axis in response to receiving the first contact member and the second contact member, respectively, to enable the first connector portion to mate with the second connector portion.

Abstract: In examples of the present disclosure, a vented electrical terminal block may include a body that may be configured to support a plurality of electrical terminals In examples, the body may include a plurality of side walls that may extend from the body. The body may include a plurality of apertures extending through the body. A cavity may be defined by an underside of the body. The cavity may receive a cavity fluid. In examples, at least one side wall may include an opening for receiving a sealing fluid, and apertures may be configured to vent said cavity fluid from the cavity when sealing fluid is introduced into the cavity via the opening.

Abstract: An electrical unit includes a housing member, a circuit board, a header connected to the housing member, and a plurality of electrical terminals disposed in the header and connected to the circuit board. The header may be connected to the housing member such that movement of the header is restricted and forces applied to the circuit board via the housing member are limited. The header may include a retainer configured to retain the header relative to the housing member. The housing member may include a latch configured to engage the retainer.
