In a substrate-side housing of a plug connector and a housing of a socket connector, an abutment receiving portion and a columnar projection are provided to disable the socket connector from being inserted into the substrate-side housing when the socket connector is misaligned beyond a movable range of a fitting-side housing of the plug connector.

Connector with terminal overstress prevention

In an upper phase module, a second electrode terminalV is located at a center Cof the upper phase module, and a first electrode terminalU and a third electrode terminalW, and a first P terminalP and a second P terminalP are located so as to be symmetric with respect to the second electrode terminalV in an X-direction. The first electrode terminalU, the second electrode terminalV, the third electrode terminalW, the first P terminalP and the second P terminalP of the upper phase moduleare located at the same positions as those of a fourth electrode terminalU, a fifth electrode terminalV, a sixth electrode terminalW, a first N terminalN and a second N terminalN of a lower phase module, respectively, in the X-direction.

Three-phase inverter module

A plug connector includes a substrate-side housing, a fitting-side housing, a plurality of terminals having movable springs. The fitting-side housing is formed by a plurality of divided housings. The fitting-side housing is formed by a plurality of divided housings moveable separately in a width direction of the connector. The substrate-side housing includes a receiving chamber that receives the divided housings therein and an abutment receiving portion against which the divided housings displaced inside the receiving chamber abut. The terminals are disposed in each of the divided housings, and have contact portions inside the substrate-side housing and the divided housings, and the contact portions are to be in conductive contact with the connection object. The movable springs support each of the divided housings displaceably relative to the substrate-side housing.
