This is a method for electrically connecting the pierce terminalhaving pierce bladesthat pierce through the flat conductorwith the flat conductorby the pierce blades, in which the connection state is adjusted based on a terminal reaction force R acting on the pierced bladeby a ruptured end surfaceof the flat wiring conductor. The adjustment of the terminal reaction force R is made by adjusting a pressing reaction force F/A generated when the pierce bladepierces through the flat wiring conductor
