Abstract
The present divisional multi-polar connector is free from difficulties caused by uneven end portions of the male connector housings, such as deformation of the connector, entanglement of the wire harness or the like with the connector during transportation, or damage to the terminals. In a divisional multi-polar connector in which plural kinds of male connector housings are protruded from a first frame, the front end of the first frame has recesses so that the engaging surfaces of the end portions of the male connector housings are made flush with each other. When a male connector housing is not present, a dummy housing is provided, so that all the points on the overall engaging surface of the connector are co-planar.
