Annular electrical connector assembly

An electrical connector assembly for an electrical device having a leading edge, an upper bonnet, a contact ring having a plurality of protrusions, and a lower bonnet, the electrical connector assembly comprising:

• a tray having a plurality of apertures, each aperture having a centerline perpendicular to the tray;
• an electrical connector disposed through each aperture, the electrical connector having:
• a housing engaged to the tray, the housing having an upper portion and a lower portion, the upper and lower portions concentric about the centerline of the aperture,
• an upper seal resiliently disposed radially between the upper bonnet of the electrical device and the upper portion of the housing,
• a lower seal resiliently disposed radially between the lower bonnet of the electrical device and the lower portion of the housing, and
• a terminal having a ring and at least one tab, the ring disposed axially between the upper and lower portions of the housing, the at least one tab extended radially inward and upward from the ring, the at least one tab disposed between the upper seal and the plurality of protrusions of the contact ring, the at least one tab held resiliently against the protrusions by the upper seal;
• a shield plate having a plurality of holes concentrically located about the centerline over the plurality of apertures of the tray;
• and
• a panel mounted connector snap fitted to the tray and in electrical contact with each terminal.

An electrical connector assembly for an electrical device, the electrical connector assembly comprising:

• a tray having a plurality of apertures, each aperture having a centerline, the centerline perpendicular to the tray;
• an electrical connector centered through each aperture and disposed radially outward from the electrical device, the electrical connector having a housing having an upper portion engaged to the tray, an upper seal adapted to be resiliently engaged radially between the electrical device and the upper portion of the housing, and a terminal disposed below the upper portion of the housing, the terminal adapted to be in electrical contact with the electrical device;
• and
• the terminal having a ring and a tab, the ring disposed axially below the upper portion, the tab extended radially inward and upward from the ring, the tab disposed radially between the upper seal and the electrical device, the tab held resiliently against the electrical device by the upper seal.
