[0007] Wherein, the first short pin contact 2 and the first long pin contact 4 are arranged in the socket;

[0008] A second short pin contact 6 and a second long pin contact 9 are arranged in the plug;

[0009] The position of the first short pin contact 2 in the socket and the position of the second short pin contact 6 in the plug are set so that when the plug and the socket are connected, the first short pin contact 2 and the second short pin contact 6 are close to each other until they are in contact; when the first short pin contact 2 and the second short pin contact 6 are in contact, the lighting path of the first signal light in the electrical connector is turned on;

[0010] The position of the first long pin contact 4 in the socket and the position of the second long pin contact 9 in the plug are set so that when the plug and the socket are connected, the first long pin contact 4 and the second long pin contact 9 approach each other until they are in contact; when the first long pin contact 4 and the second long pin contact 9 are in contact, the lighting path of the second signal light in the electrical connector is connected.

[0011] The sum of the lengths of the first long pin contact 4 and the second long pin contact 9 is set to be longer than the sum of the lengths of the first short pin contact 2 and the second short pin contact 6 .

[0012] The first long pin contact 4 is longer than the first short pin contact 2 .

[0013] The second long pin contact 9 is longer than the second short pin contact 6 .

[0014] The first long needle contact 4 and the second long needle contact 9 have the same length.

[0015] The first short pin contact 2 and the second short pin contact 6 have the same length.

[0016] The first signal light is a green light.

[0017] The second signal light is a red light.

[0021] The present invention adds a pair of long pins and a pair of short pins when transmitting large currents, and monitors the current transmission in real time. Such an electrical connector that monitors the current transmission in real time can effectively prevent failure caused by loosening of the electrical connector.

[0022] (III) Beneficial effects

[0023] The current connector uses a pair of long pins and a pair of short pins to monitor the real-time status of the current contact. The green and red indicator lights are always on, indicating normal transmission; the green indicator light is off and the red indicator light is always on, indicating that the current transmission is disconnected. Compared with the prior art, the present invention adopts the above mechanism scheme, and the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0024] (1) The green indicator light turns on, indicating that the current is in stable contact; the green indicator light turns off, indicating that the connector is loose; the red indicator light turns off, indicating that the connector is separated;

[0025] (2) The long and short needles have a simple structure and are easy to process. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
