Abstract
An electrical connector is provided, which includes an insulative housing and a flexible bus inserted into the insulative housing. The insulative housing includes a base defining a slot therein, and a mating portion connected with the base. Mounting portions are integrally formed on opposite sides of the base for receiving fixing sheets. The flexible bus has a top surface and a bottom surface, the bottom surface forming a plurality of contact points on an end thereof. When the flexible bus extends into the slot of the insulative housing, contact points of the flexible bus are exposed out of a side of the mating portion for electrically connecting with a mating connector.
