An electric connection box includes a housing having an opening defined by an upper end of side walls, a lock protruding plate, a lid including a hanging wall and to be attached to the housing, a hook, an inner wall protruding from the lid and a notch being obtained by cutting a lower tip end of the inner wall. The hanging wall is, when the lid is attached to the housing, to cover an outer side of side walls. The hook is to rotate the lid such that the lid is attached to the housing. The inner wall is to, when the lid is attached to the housing, to sandwich the one of the plurality side walls between the hanging wall. The notch is formed on the inner wall in a second portion corresponding to a first portion of the hanging wall on which the hook is provided.

An electric connection box includes a housing having an opening formed by side walls, a lock protruding plate, a lid to be attached to the housing, a hook, a lock portion, a protective wall, lock pieces and slits. The protective wall is configured to, when the lid is attached to the housing, cover a cable connection portion provided on the second side wall. The lock pieces extend in parallel to the protective wall and extend from the protective wall toward a first direction. The pair of slits respectively includes a receiving opening to, when the lid is attached to the housing, accommodate respective one of the pair of lock pieces, the pair of slits being to receive the lock pieces when engagement at the lock portion is carried out.
