ABSTRACT:
A terminal 20 is provided with a coupling portion 21 on an end thereof and with a press-contact portion 22 on the other end. A press-contact member 23 is coupled to the press-contact portion 22. The member 23 is provided with a press-contact slot 23a an inlet port of which is arranged in a direction perpendicular to an axial direction. A connector case 10 is provided with a cylindrical portion 13. When the terminal 20 is inserted into the cylindrical portion 13, the press-contact portion 22 is exposed through an opening 14 formed in a side wall of the connector case 10. When an electrical cable W is inserted into the case 10 through the opening 14, the cable W is inserted into the slot 23a to form an electrical connection. Then, the cable W is arranged in parallel with the terminal 20 so that a mating cable to be connected to the terminal 20 does not project from the cable W.
