An electrical connector includes an insulative housing () which comprise a pair of side walls () and a pair of end walls () linking with two ends of the side wall, a plurality of terminals () retained in the side wall and a pair of grounding bridges () received in the end wall. Each of the grounding bridge comprise a contacting part () engaging with a mating connector, a grounding part () and a conducting part () mechanically connecting with the contacting part and grounding part. And the conductive part () has a larger resistance compared with the contacting part and the grounding part. Therefore, the power current transmitting through the guiding bridge () can be lower.
