  • Patent number: 9048576
    Abstract: An electrical connector assembly comprises a primary connector housing, a mating connector housing, a primary lock, and a secondary lock. The primary lock is defined by both the primary connector housing and the mating connector housing. The secondary lock is supported by the mating connector housing and is arranged and configured for interacting with the primary lock so as to prevent the primary lock, when positioned in a locked position, from disengaging. The primary lock comprises a lock arm extending from the primary connector housing and a lock lever extending from the mating connector housing.
