Abstract
A front mask () can be held at a testing position located before a proper position with respect to a mounting direction of the front mask (). At this testing position, parts of the front ends of connecting portions (S) of smaller female terminals (S) accommodated in smaller cavities (S) located behind the corresponding smaller cavities (S) with respect to the mounting direction are exposed in smaller terminal insertion openings (S), and these smaller terminal insertion openings (S) are used also as testing openings through which probes () for an electrical connection test are inserted. The front mask () also is formed with test openings () where parts of the front ends of the connecting portions (S) of the smaller female terminals (S) accommodated in the frontmost smaller cavities (S) with respect to the mounting direction are exposed when the front mask () is at the testing position.
