ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector (1,1') having multiple contacts (40') are arranged in the insulating housing (10) at a predetermined pitch and have a J-shaped connecting section (44). When an external force (F), which tends to pull a flat cable (4) in a direction away from connector (1) is applied to the flat cable (4), connecting sections (44) of all contacts (40) are bent and their back surfaces (56) are pressed against the inner wall (30) of the insulating housing (10). This pressure generates resistance from the inner wall (30) resulting in a strong frictional force between connecting sections (44) and flat cable (4), thus reliably securing cable (4) in the connector housing.
