An electrical connector with touch safety contact structure. The connector includes an insulative housing, a contact and at least one protecting insulator. The insulative housing defines a mating direction, a mating face and a receiving cavity recessed from the mating face along the mating direction. The contact is received in the insulative housing and includes a contacting portion exposed into the receiving cavity, a retaining portion extending from one end of the contacting portion to be interferentially received in the insulative housing, and a forward end extending from the other end of the contacting portion to locate more closely to the mating face of the insulative housing than the contacting portion, and a connecting portion extending from the retaining portion to be exposed beyond the insulative housing. The protecting insulator covers the forward end of the contact. An additional grounding contact assembled to the insulative housing may be included.
