ABSTRACT:
A coupling terminal unit (30) has terminal fittings (20) coupled in parallel by a coupling portion (31) and is stamped from a metallic plate so that the coupling portion (31) is extendible in an arranging direction of the terminal fittings (20). An arrangement pitch (A) of the terminal fittings (20) is narrower than an arrangement pitch of the terminal insertion holes (14). Then, since the coupled terminal unit (30) is stamped out such that the arrangement pitch (A) of the terminal fittings (20) is narrower than that of the terminal insertion holes (14), unnecessary portions between the terminal fittings (20) can be reduced. Thus, the utilization efficiency of a material for the production of the coupled terminal unit (30) can be improved.
