Abstract
A combined connector including a base housing for receiving metal terminals, and a sub-housing which is inserted in the base housing to be combined therewith, the sub-housing including a cover for closing an open portion of terminal receiving grooves for receiving metal terminals. There is provided a combination-confirming mechanism by which it can be confirmed by the closing of the terminal receiving grooves by the cover of the sub-housing, combined with the base housing, that the sub-housing is properly inserted in and combined with the base housing. Therefore, an incompletely-combined condition can be positively prevented.
