CA 2035419

A cordless electrical appliance, for example an electric hot water jug, has a standard multi-pin type electrical connector on its appliance part and a cooperating connector on the base part. The pins of the appliance connector are oriented conventionally, namely generally horizontally as for a corded appliance, and are adapted to cooperate with shuttered spring terminals in the base connector, the arrangement being such that as the appliance part is lowered generally vertically onto the base part the horizontal pins on the appliance connector enter respective apertures in the base connector and displace the shutter thereby enabling the terminal ends of the spring terminals to move forwards into electrical contact with the ends of the pins on the appliance part. The use of a standard connector arrangement on the appliance part means that the appliance can be used in a corded or cordless manner and has cost advantages. A control on the appliance, eg. an element overtemperature protector on a hot water jug, can be arranged to prevent the base connector from coupling electrically to the base connector, and the base connector can advantageously comprise a unitary structure provided with its own cable clamp.
