Abstract
Three male terminals are inserted respectively into terminal receiving chambers in a male connector housing and a bus bar is inserted into the terminal receiving chambers through a through-hole. As a result, the insertion side portion of the bus bar is press-fitted in reception grooves in bus bar press-fitting portions disposed beneath the through-hole. Thus, the insertion side portion of the bus bar is received in the reception grooves in the three male terminals, and is mechanically fixed to and electrically connected to the male terminals, so that three insulated wires connected respectively to the male terminals are connected together only at the male connector housing.
