Next configuration features in including: two kinds of probes; measurement probes and connection probes anew, and a plurality of connection probes include buckling portions to buckle, upon a contact by an end of contact portion onto the wiring pattern provided with the first board when inserted into holes provided with the a second board; wherein through holes provided with the second board are positioned to align to the arrangement of wiring pattern provided with the first board. Thereby, undesirable deviation of contact point by the probe is avoided and a suitable contact pressure is preferably kept, and further convenience in the work of exchanging damaged probes is brought about.
