Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An electrical connector for a modular electrical connection assembly for a fuel system includes a first leg portion and an adjacent second leg portion, each leg portion defining a cavity. The cavity of the first leg portion is configured to receive and maintain a first connector terminal and the cavity of the second leg portion is configured to receive and maintain a second connector terminal without the use of a seal fluidly separating the first connector terminal from the second connector terminal. The first connector terminal and the second connector terminal are concurrently operable with the fuel system.
