ABSTRACT:
When a short-circuit terminal 4 is inserted into a 22, a first engaging projection 46 formed in the terminal 4 is engaged with an engaging member 24, thereby realizing first engagement. Thereafter, when a retainer 5 is pressed to its main locking position, a second engaging projection 48 of the terminal 4 is engaged with the rear edge of guide surfaces 55, thereby realizing second engagement. The terminal 4 can be securely locked in the cavity 22 by the two engaging mechanisms. At the same time, supply terminals 3 are also doubly locked in cavities 21.
