    Abstract: A connector for a flat flexible cable includes a housing and a terminal disposed in the housing. The housing has a base and a cover. The base has a closed section with a receiving passageway and an open section extending from the closed section. The cover encloses the open section in a closed position of the cover. The cover has a main body with a pressing surface and a latch extending from the main body. The latch engages a catch of the base in the closed position. The terminal is disposed in the receiving passageway and has a tab extending into the open section. The pressing surface abuts the tab and presses the tab toward the base in the closed position.

    Abstract: Pressure sensor assemblies comprise a sensor body having a membrane within the body for placement in communication with a fluid from an external source and determining a pressure of the fluid. A support is connected with the body and includes a channel extending therethrough for receiving the fluid, wherein the channel is in fluid-flow communication with the membrane. A substrate is connected with the support and comprises a channel extending therethrough for receiving the fluid from an external source. The support may be formed from a material having a coefficient of thermal expansion that is between a coefficient of thermal expansion of the support and a coefficient of thermal expansion of the external fluid source connected with the substrate. One of the substrate or the support comprises a fluid pressure mitigation feature for mitigating the transmission of a pressure spike in the fluid to protect the sensor membrane.

    Abstract: A connector assembly is provided and includes an electrical connector that includes a housing having a contact channel and a contact held in the contact channel. The contact is terminated to an end of a cable. The cable extends from the housing. The electrical connector includes a terminal position assurance (TPA) device coupled to the housing and operably assuring proper positioning of the contact in the contact channel. The electrical connector includes a mating end. The connector assembly includes a support bracket configured to support the electrical connector. The support bracket includes an opening. The electrical connector is suspended from the support bracket and received in the opening with the mating end forward of the support bracket for mating with a mating electrical connector. The electrical connector has six mechanical degrees of freedom relative to the support bracket.

    Abstract: A charging station health monitoring device for monitoring a health of a charging socket of a charging station includes a device housing having a user interface. The charging station health monitoring device includes a control panel in the device housing. The control panel operably coupled to the user interface. The charging station health monitoring device includes a testing sensor coupled to the control panel. The testing sensor coupled to the control panel. The testing sensor includes a testing pin, a testing probe, and an insulator between the testing pin and the testing probe. The testing pin includes a pin interface. The testing probe includes a probe interface. The probe interface spaced apart from the pin interface. The testing sensor is configured to be plugged into the charging socket such that the pin interface and the probe interface are configured to engage the charging socket at different testing locations to determine a resistance measurement for the charging socket.
