Zusammenfassung:A plug connector includes a plug housing configured to be coupled to a header connector. The plug housing holds plug contacts configured to be mated with corresponding header contacts. The plug connector includes an eCPA assembly coupled to the plug housing having an actuator movable between a retracted position and an actuated position and holding a shorting terminal movable by the actuator between a mated position and an unmated position. The shorting terminal is coupled to fixed terminals in the mated position to form a position assurance circuit in the mated position.
