A connector assembly, such as a shielded high voltage electrical connector assembly, includes an outer housing having a guide post extending parallel to a mating axis and an inner housing slideably attached to the outer housing. The inner housing is configured to move along the mating axis from a first position to a second position. The inner housing comprises a guide tube that extends parallel to the mating axis. The guide tube defines a guide cavity that extends through the guide tube in a direction parallel to the mating axis. At least a portion of the guide post is disposed within the guide cavity when the inner housing is in the first position and in the second position.
