Abstract
A land grid array socket is provided which includes an insulative housing (22) having a plurality of passageways (24) each accommodating an electrical terminal (1) therein. Contacting ends (134) of the terminal in a same row of the passageways all extend along a predetermined lateral direction, and because of bend of a bending portion (132) in the terminal, the contacting end of the terminal in one passageway does not overlap with another terminal in an adjacent passageway along a vertical direction so as to avoid short circuit risk therebetween.
