ABSTRACT:
An insulator (100) wherein a funnel portion (120) has a conical inner peripheral surface (121) of an inner diameter increasing in a direction away from a body (101). A male terminal (second terminal) (161) is inserted into the insulator (100) from the funnel portion (120) to mate with a female terminal (first terminal) (151) housed in the insulator (100), and a jig (170) is prevented from interfering with an edge of the funnel portion (120) of the insulator (100) as the male terminal (161) is securely pushed into the female terminal (151), thereby preventing connection failure between the first and second terminals. If the path of insertion of the male terminal (161) is shifted so that the male terminal (161) abuts against the inner peripheral surface (121), the path is corrected along the slope of the inner peripheral surface (121), facilitating the insertion of the male terminal (161).
