Abstract, Probeable Electric Connector A probeable electrical connector assembly including a set of or a plurality of mating terminals (6) and (8) arranged in a matrix and accommodated in mating housings (2) and (4). Passages (12,14) having openings (11) are incorporated in housings (2) and (4) and allow the insertion of a probe (16) to make electrical contact with a preselected terminal of a joined terminal union (10). In this manner electrical measurements may be made with respect to the terminal without first disassembling the connection. Undesired contaminants are prevented from entering openings (11) by a reusable seal (20) which is positioned about each housing.
