ABSTRACT:
A connector is provided with male terminal fittings (30), seals (50) mountable on the male terminal fittings (30), and a housing (10) formed with cavities (14) for accommodating the male terminal fittings (30) with the seals (50) held in close contact with the inner wall surfaces of the cavities (14). Each seal (50) is mounted on a tab (31) located before a wire barrel (32) in the male terminal fitting (30). Accordingly, even if water enters through the inside of the wire (90), an arrival of the water at mating portions of male and female terminal fittings (30, 80) can be avoided.
