ABSTRACT An electrical connector (10) has a housing (12) containing multiple electric terminals (18). A multiple conductor cable (36) passes through an opening in the housing with each of the conductors terminated to the conductor terminating portion (193 of a respective one of the terminals (18). A strain relief region (20) is bounded by two sides (42,44) and and a bottom abutment surface (32). Each of the sides has spaced mutually facing engagement surfaces (42,44). A U-shaped staple (30) has a bight (52) and two legs (54,56) extending therefrom to respective free ends (55,57). Each leg (54,56) is of an appropriate cross section, having large edges (62) and small edges (64), the small edges (64) include a plurality of barbs (66) spaced therealong-in penetrating contact with the engagement surfaces (42,44). As the staple (30) is inserted into the connector housing (12) to a predetermined position, the cable (36) is compressed into the remaining space between the staple (30) and the abutment surface (32) such that the cable (36) is compressed a predetermined amount, thereby providing strain relief. 14190
