ABSTRACT:
A connector includes a first connector, a second connector and a fitting detection member. The first connector includes a tab terminal and a projection. The second connector includes a tab receiving terminal for electrical connection to the tab terminal and an elastic lock arm for sliding over the projection when the second connector is fitted into the first connector. The fitting detection member is mounted on the second connector so as to slide in a direction of fitting of the first and second connectors. The fitting detection member is engaged with the elastic lock arm in a half fitting condition of the first and second connectors. The fitting detection member is slidable to a completely-fitted detecting position in a completely-fitted condition of the male and second connectors. The reduction member which reduce a frictional force generated by a contact between the projection and the elastic lock arm is formed on at least one of the projection and the elastic lock arm.
