Waterproof cordless plug connector

A waterproof cordless plug connector 150 comprises a main body with at least four electrical terminals A2, B2, C2, D2, E2, wherein a portion of each electrical terminal is sealed by insert moulding to prevent ingress of the liquid into the connector. The main body may have a central portion subdivided into sections 356 for each of the terminals. Each of the terminals may be further sealed with a sealant provided in discrete portions for the respective terminals. A first end of each terminal is electrically connected to a component of an appliance while a second end of each terminal is electrically connected to a corresponding terminal of a corresponding socket connector 100. The connector may have an additional terminal, e.g. an earth terminal, which makes direct electrical contact with a component of an appliance or is directly connected to a metal part of the appliance. The terminals may be arranged in a linear configuration, along an arc, or in a configuration having a central terminal and at least three peripheral terminals that are equally spaced from the central terminal. One of the peripheral terminals may be a low voltage signal terminal.
