Electrical connector assembly, plug, and socket

An electrical connector assembly, comprising:

• a socket comprising a sidewall and defining at least one latching hole, one end of each of the at least one latching hole being defined in the sidewall;
• and
• a plug comprising:
• a main body comprising a first surface and a second surface perpendicular to the first surface, the main body defining at least one receiving space, a first groove, and a second groove, one end of each of the at least one receiving space being defined in the first surface, and the at least one receiving space extending along a direction perpendicular to the first surface, the first groove being defined in the second surface, the second groove being defined within the main body and communicating with the at least one receiving space, the first groove and the second groove are substantially perpendicular to the at least one receiving space;
• at least one latching mechanism partially received in the receiving space;
• and
• a switch positioned in the second groove and partially exposed through the first groove;
• wherein, the sidewall is able to resist the at least one latching mechanism to cause each of the at least one latching mechanism to move into one of the at least one latching hole and rotate until each of the at least one latching mechanism resists a sidewall of the one of the at least one latching hole, and further cause the at least one latching mechanism to engage the switch, thus connecting the plug to the socket;
• the switch is further able to cause the at least one latching mechanism to disengage from the switch and rotate to disengage from the at least one latching hole, thus disconnecting the plug from the socket.
