Double terminal position assurance device for different cavity pitches

Abstract

An electrical connector assembly includes a connector housing configured to receive multiple terminals and a terminal header arranged within the housing. The terminal header comprises a first region with a first pitch between terminals and a second region with a second pitch, the first pitch being larger than the second pitch. The assembly further includes first and second terminal position assurance (TPA) members mounted to the connector housing and movable relative to the housing between pre-lock and final lock positions. The first TPA member is associated with the first region of the terminal header, while the second TPA member is associated with the second region. This configuration enables secure positioning and locking of terminals with differing pitches within the connector housing.
