Terminal retaining portions, which are engageable with housing engagement portions of the connection terminals, inserted into the terminal receiving portions through the upper openings thereof, so as to position the terminals, are formed on the partition walls. Cover engagement portions, which are engageable respectively with the corresponding terminal retaining portions to connect the cover member to the insulating housing, are formed at the cover member.
