2-Position Power Interconnect Housing
The TE Connectivity 828657-3 is a 2-position receptacle housing from the Junior Power Timer series, designed for wire-to-wire or wire-to-device power interconnects in automotive and industrial harness assemblies. The 5.00 mm pitch provides the creepage and clearance needed for power-level circuits without demanding an oversized connector footprint. This is the housing only — the female socket crimp terminals are ordered separately, a detail that catches first-time buyers who expect a loaded connector. The housing is molded from glass-filled PA66 (Nylon 6/6) in black, rated for the underhood temperature exposure typical of engine-bay and chassis harnesses. The free-hanging (in-line) mount with a latch holder fastening system gives a positive mechanical lock when mated to the matching header, resisting vibration-induced disconnect in mobile equipment.
Termination and Mating
Crimp termination is specified for this housing — the female socket contacts (not included) are crimped onto wire, then inserted into the cavity until the latch holder engages.
