Abstract
An electrical connector includes a body having an accommodating hole. The body has a protruding block and a platform protruding into the accommodating hole. The platform is located below the protruding block. A conductive terminal is accommodated in the accommodating hole. The conductive terminal has a base, which bends to form an accommodating space to accommodate the protruding block. The base has a through slot, and first and second branches located at two sides of the through slot. A lower section of the first branch is limited between the first protruding block and the platform. A method for manufacturing the electrical connector includes inserting the conductive terminal with the accommodating space opening upward into the accommodating hole by the strip, and rotating the conductive terminal with the protruding block as an axis, until the lower section of the first branch is located between the platform and the first protruding block.
