Abstract
A connector housing has an abutment surface with which a front end surface of an opposing connector is brought into contact at a time of fitting to the opposing connector. Terminal metal fittings are inserted to positions rearward from the abutment surface from terminal insertion holes in the connector housing. A retainer is moved to a regular engagement position from a temporary engagement position so as to prevent the terminal metal fittings from falling off rearward, and is provided with a projection extending forward from the abutment surface of the connector housing.
