An electrical connector includes a housing. The housing defines a terminal cavity that extends along a connector axis. The terminal cavity has a height that is perpendicular to the connector axis. The terminal cavity has a width that is perpendicular to the connector axis and also perpendicular to the height. The width is greater than the height. The terminal cavity adapted to accommodate a flat cable inserted in an insertion direction parallel to the connector axis. The electrical connector also includes a polarizer that extends parallel to the height. The polarizer is located within the width. The polarizer is adapted to prevent insertion into at least part of the terminal cavity.
