Abstract
A joining electrical connector connects board electrical connectors in a connector fitting direction. The joining electrical connector has a housing and a plurality of terminals arranged in the housing in a terminal arrangement direction. Each joining terminal has a main body section with contact sections to connect to each terminal of the board electrical connectors and a supported section supported by the housing in the connector fitting direction. The main body section and the supported section can move in the terminal arrangement direction responding to displacement when the relative positions of the two board electrical connectors are displaced from the regular positions. The supported section is provided so as to have at least a part thereof in the connector fitting direction overlapped with the range of the main body section in the direction.
