The present invention relates to a connector for electrical components.
Electrical connectors are used for a variety of purposes, including connecting sensors to buses and networks. Modern vehicles include a myriad of sensors. Typically, each sensor includes a connector that permits the connection and disconnection of power and communication lines (typically in the form or multiple wires) between the sensor and a controller or a control system. In some instances, the communication and power lines form part of a vehicle bus or network (referred to as “vehicle bus” hereafter). Thus, it is possible to connect and replace sensors without the need to physically cut wires and splice them to reestablish a connection.
