ABSTRACT Electrical connector assembly comprises a plug and a receptacle. A primary keying system is provided which permits insertion of the plug into the opening of the receptacle but which precludes insertion of a similar, but more narrow, plug into the opening. A secondary keying system is provided for specifically keying the plug and receptacle to each other and prevents insertion of another properly sized plug into the opening. The primary keying system is advantageous when a series or family of connector assemblies are produced with the different assemblies of the family being generally similar but having increasing numbers of terminals and therefore increasing width. The plug and receptacle can be provided with sheet metal shielding enclosures.
