The female contact includes a pressed surface that is pressed by the lance, and a first engaged part that is formed to protrude in a direction away from the pressed surface. A second engaging part is formed in the housing and a second engaged part that can be engaged with the second engaging part is formed in the female contact so that a second engagement between the housing and the female contact is achieved on a side opposite to the side of a first engagement between the first engaging part and the first engaged part with respect to a central axis of the female contact.
