Abstract
One of a pair of first terminals includes a spring member of which one end is supported by the first housing. A contact portion that contacts one of a pair of second terminals is formed on a free end of the spring member. A lock arm abuts against the spring member to displace the contact portion, and brings the contact portion into contact with one of the second terminals at the time of locking. The other of the first terminals has a contact portion that contacts the other of the second terminals when the connectors are fitted, and is disposed apart from one of the first terminals.
