Abstract

A connector is provided with a ground terminal, and a side type retainer is mountable in the connector. A connection element receptacle 20 for accommodating an electrical connection element 3 is provided inside a connector housing 2. A retainer 4 for locking the electrical connection element 3 is mounted in a retainer mount hole 25 formed in the upper surface of the connector housing 2. Further, a ground terminal receptacle 29 for accommodating a ground terminal 5 is provided in the bottom wall of the connection element receptacle 20. In this way, since the retainer 4 is assembled at the side of the electrical connection element 3 opposite from the ground terminal 5, it can be constructed as a so-called side retainer.
