Overall view of the retro package electrical wiring connectors located on the top of the spacecraft when viewed from the rear.

Picture 2 of 2.

One connector goes to the retro package proper and the other goes to the capsule to adapter separation sensor located on the strap.

These wiring bundles are explosively disconnected prior to reentry.

Aft of the electrical connectors, note the clip to which one of the the retro-pack retention straps attaches to the spacecraft afterbody.
