ABSTRACT:
A joint connector (10) has sub-housings (S) (S1to S6) that can be built up in plural levels. Projecting pieces (31) project on outer sides of the respective sub-housings (S) in directions intersecting a build-up direction (BUD) of the sub-housings (S) and define hand-push portions (13) by building up the sub-housings (S). The sub-housings (S) built up in levels are fit into the intermediate connector (20) by pushing the hand-push portions (13) towards the intermediate connector (20) so that terminal fittings (40) in the joint connector (10) are connected electrically with intermediate terminals (24) in the intermediate connector (20). Identifying projections (A) on the lower mating surfaces of the projecting pieces (31) enter identifying recesses (B) in the upper mating surfaces of adjacent projecting pieces (31) if the sub-housings (S) are built up properly.
