Abstract
An electrical connector includes a connector body (2), and a plurality of passageways (20). A passageway retention wall (202) extends into each of the passageways. Each of the terminals (3) has a terminal retention section (322) defining thereof a retention edge, which is adapted to be rested on said passageway retention wall for securing the terminal onto the connector body. This arrangement will prevent the connector body to be removed therefrom by an improperly upward force, such as force applied to pull out the mating component from the electrical connector.
