ABSTRACT:
The present connector has a structure which makes it possible to execute a step of mounting a wire holder serving also as a cover member to a housing main body and a step of connecting electrical wires to their respective pressure contact terminals in one operation to simplify the assembly thereof and is thus suitable for mass production. A housing main body supports the pressure contact edges of the pressure contact terminals in an upwardly bent position with respect to the male tabs of the pressure contact terminals. A wire holder holds a plurality of electric wires provisionally in such a manner that the wires can be pressure contacted with their respective pressure contact edges, and serves also as a cover member to close the upper opening of the housing main body, through which opening the pressure contact edges are exposed. By mounting the wire holder to the housing main body, the wires can be connected to the pressure contact terminals. Also, the wires are previously bent and provisionally held by the wire holder and a spacer cooperable with the wire holder to thereby prevent the wires from being removed backwardly.
