Abstract
The electric junction box according to this invention consists of an insulating box with a connector receiving portion and an opening formed next to it in which a through-connector is mounted. A multipole connector consisting of two portions formed as one portion is engaged with the connector receiving portion of the junction box and with the through-connector to provide electrical connection. A locking means is provided at the opening between the through-connector and the insulating box to prevent the through-connector from slipping off. The locking means is so constructed as to allow the slight movement in the opening of the through-connector. This permits the through-connector to be shifted and aligned with the incoming mating connector of the multipole connector as the mating connector is fastened to the through-connector, thus assuring correct and smooth connection between them.
