Abstract

This invention relates to a connection set for electrically connecting a mother card (1) and a daughter card (2), comprising a first connector (3) including a first insulating body (10) which presents first contact members (60) of which first ends (63) are inserted in the mother card (1) and a second connector member (5) including a second insulating body (81) which presents second contact members (85) of which respective first ends (83) cooperate with corresponding ends (62) of respective one of the first contact members (60) and of which second ends (88) are inserted in the daughter card, respective surfaces (31, 41)) of the first (3) and the second (5) insulating bodies facing each other when the first (3) and second (5) connector members are connected together. It comprises a spacer member (44) which maintains a predetermined distance between the two facing surfaces (31, 41), of the first (10) and second (81) insulating bodies so that the edge (61) of the daughter card (6) remains spaced apart from the first insulating body (10).
